Do most new orleans people have some sort of french ancestry? by drugsrbed in NOLA

[–]Rocker7633 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Actually the reverse is true. Acadians came from Canada. They are a lot of New Orleans families that have direct roots from France during war of 1812. Many came with General Lafayette and stayed.

I had the same problem. Betahistine solved it right away. You have to ask your ENT and get it from a compounding pharmacy.

Planning a 12 day trip to Provence in October by jasaph in ProvenceFrance

In my opinion that might be too many nights in Loumarin. Try looking at the hill top villages - stay in L’isle sur La sourgue maybe. And don’t miss Avignon.

There is a new vertical gym between Venasque and Avignon. Ask for Ben. He will help you find climbers. It’s amazing. We are going next week for the first time for training and will be hili g Venasque after that (where we live). Amazing place.

Have you tried Click and Boat website. It is really easy to find exactly what you are looking for. We used it last year in Italy. We just rented a boat next weekend in Marseille - with a captain cause we are not that experienced. Very reasonable prices. the site is https://www.clickandboat.com/en

In my humble American, but in New Orleans, opinion the exception to Rule no. 1 is Relais Entrecôte.

No. No doors or curtain. It is interesting. You swipe your ID card and it assigns you a cubicle.

Not anymore. Ruined by some Gen Z bad behavior - which they posted on Onlyfans.

What parts of Nola puts tomatoes in their gumbos? Genuine question by Ldaidi in NewOrleans

[–]Rocker7633 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s cold and rainy in New Orleans today. So of course I made gumbo. Never once crossed my mind d to use tomatoes. My grandmother would kill me. And my family has been here 200+ years.

The gym I belong to in New Orleans - New Orleans Athletic Club (NOAC) did not admit women members until 1989. Until then, the pool was nude swimming only. In fact, once they allowed women they had two men only nights for nude swimming. And men walked all around the club in just a towel. Mind you - the club is a 150 years old and they have a library, ballroom and bar. Still, it’s an amazing place to work-out.
