Memphis to New Orleans
New Year’s Eve Victorian Cruise
We cruised south from Memphis, viewing grand Southern plantation homes, mansions, and townhouses in their traditional holiday dress in Helena, Vicksburg, Natchez, St. Francisville, Baton Rouge, Oak Alley and our final destination – New Orleans. We enjoyed blues, barbeque, Civil War history, and Southern antebellum hospitality.
