This video makes me want to go to New Orleans and I live here. I gotta get out more often, ride my bike in all of it's Mardi Gras beaded glory up and down St. Charles en route to some classic yet affordable restaurant for lunch and have the tourists snap pictures of me in the process. :-)
Hello all.
Hope all is well on your end. We're hoping to crack consciousness on YouTube as part of our ongoing efforts to promote the New Orleans renaissance. Tourism is fundamental to NOLA, encompassing pretty much everything we're about - from cultural preservation to necessary economics - responsible for about 35% of the city's operating budget and over 100,000 jobs. Tourism is at about 80% of pre-Katrina levels right now.
All is splendid right now with Festival Season in full swing, cool, breezy days, and azaleas, sweet olive, Japanese magnolia and jasmine painting the city with an explosion of color and scents. But summer's coming and things slow down a bit. We want to fully leverage the great spring activities to generate momentum through the year. Appreciate you forwarding this link along to one person. More is icing.
Don't forget to allow us to return the favor. We're good like that.
Thanks!
