New Orleans Alone: A Solo Travel Guide for Women 50 and Over

New Orleans, long lunches and slow streets.

Book lunch at Commander's Palace, take a bar seat at an oyster house, and ride the Algiers Point ferry across the river, rerouting whenever a block empties after dark.

Eat alone: the po'boy counter, beignets, gumbo, snowballs, Vietnamese New Orleans.

See: the French Quarter, the Marigny, the Garden District, Bayou St. John.

Feel safe: care toward Rampart Street after dark, a reroute when blocks empty.

Day plans, hotels by budget and honest safety notes. EPUB ebook.
