..drinks and yes, Bourbon Street is no joke especially at night. The only other places in the U.S. with a busier night life section is Las Vegas, New York, and Los Angeles in my experience. The photos I took below contributed to great memories now:

Bourbon street always be happening on the weekends. (pre pandemic)
Those people renting them cottage on them top floors are considered ballers. It is also happening there during the mardi gras parade. In Louisiana, plenty of parish (county) would host a mardi gras parade. We kids just like to get free stuff at them parades. You call their attention and they will throw you some goodies. I don't like them beads cuz they can get heavy and kinda useless. I go for them coins cuz we kids be using them to play our homemade ghetto games and plus some coins have coupons on them for a free popeyes chicken. We like those and they would throw food like coconut or candy or plastic toys and plastic cups that we can use for souvenir.
Bourbon street reminds me of Tijuana where you got both sides with retails like alcohol bars or food or voodoo palm reading. Lots of famous french cuisine restaurants are around the corner. That tall building in that pix background is harrah's casino I believe. It wasn't a casino when I left narleans in 89 though.

Speaking of Narleans, I went ahead and looked at zillow and looked at the tourist city of Grand Isle, LA and see what they got for sale.
Their listing for a few houses were 9 days ago. These guys knew that the storm was coming so they went ahead and try to flip it fast before it got destroyed by ISA. 50% of the residents in that town are wiped out by the hurricane. Some will not rebuild but will move to a better retirement location like anywhere but hurricanes central zone.

Fast money...

Besides food, their sweet tooth stuff are nicely made too:

Not a big drinker so I didn't get any but those alcohol drive-thru places looks like typical fast food places that have drive-thru service:
