Creator's Key Takeaways

the lower mississippi between new orleans and memphis is the bread and butter of the river cruising industry in the united states

we found we were a couple of decades too old to do much more than wander through the french quarter once the party machine starts up

this is one excursion you'll want to show up with an empty stomach for

today's the day we went to prison don't get to say that very often
