Ashley & Jason
Things To Do
Audubon Park
One of Ashley's favorite places to walk, walk the labyrinth, do some yoga outside
Parasol's
Home of a most excellent poboy
Live Oak Yoga
Ashley's favorite yoga studio
Le Bon Temps Roule
Jason's favorite dive bar
French Quarter
There's nothing more fun than roaming the French Quarter during the day. Check out the artists and buskers at Jackson Square, hit up Frenchman for good music, mosey toward Burgundy to avoid tourist crowds.
Bayou St. John
Bayou St. John is a cool spot for picnicking, hanging and, a favorite, kayaking. One of our first dates was a night paddle here via https://www.bayoupaddlesports.com/
Audubon Butterfly Riverview Park
A fun spot to hang by the river and the site of Ashley's "mom's league" softball games
Hong Kong Food Market
An unusual recommendation but this place is awesome! We spent hours picking up yummy ingredients to make killer ramen at home.
Our house
Location of the open house Friday night
The Vintage
Our favorite neighborhood spot and location for Sunday morning coffee and beignets
Paradigm Gardens
Our wedding venue!
Doris Metropolitan New Orleans
Best damn steak in town
Cochon Restaurant
Don't miss the oysters
Port Orleans Brewing Co.
Chill, kid friendly brewery with tons of outdoor space and yummy tacos
The National WWII Museum
Well worth the time, look for a brick outside commemorating Ashley's Paw Paw, a medic during the Battle of the Bulge.
Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden
A beautiful garden with funky sculptures. It's near a bunch of other cool things, including the new Children's Museum .
