Has Spring Sprung?


What a beautiful weekend. I had my first taste of Crawfish and Abita Strawberry for the season. That’s a combination to make it feel like Spring! The bugs were small to medium, but that didn’t stop me from finishing off two and half pounds. It was a great way to whet my appetite for the prime bugs that I imagine will be available by French Quarter Fest.
The resort was busy through the weekend as we had the American Academy of Orthopedics Surgeons conference in town. This was the biggest conference of the year and New Orleans was glad to welcome its participants with open arms. We booked available rooms to help out some of our oversold neighbors. Most that we accommodated were pleasantly surprised to be relocated to a property with more room than they are used to and a prime location where they could still walk to their meetings in the beautiful Spring weather.
We expect the next few weeks to be calm as we prepare for French Quarter Fest and 2 weekends of Jazz Fest. We still have some rooms available so book your trip if you haven’t already!
