Greg and I aren't travelling anymore, but our daughter and husband are planning a trip next year during Mardi Gras to NO. Can get airfare using our miles, will probably use VRBO or airbnb.
They are thinking of a few days to recover, probably from Wednesday after Fat Tuesday to say Saturday or Sunday. We've never been to anything on the Panhandle. I know it won't be warm enough for beach or swimming, but looking for suggestions I've seen references to Gulf Shores. Not sure about that one. I've read about and know about Destin and Panama City. Destin is closer. Would it be pretty much a laze around few days or are there things to do? Trying to placate my son-in-law as he's not completely sold on the NO idea. A few quiet days might get him on board.
And I am SOOOO happy to be planning a vacation, even if they decide not to go and even though I'm not going!!! Thoroughly love living vicariously, which is why I'm here so much.
