Relaxing River boat ride on the Mississippi. The narrator was very informative and entertaining. Highly recommend it.

Very fun excursion to and from the Chalmette battlefield. The sights are great but hands down the reason I think this was worth it was the historian commentator Charles Chestnut. This guy was witty, informative and funny. Absolutely made the excursion a great adventure for me and my wife!
