It is very immersive and each area has so many details in the staging, artifacts and information along that really pulls you in and keeps wanting you to see more of it. I personally felt the impact when we entered the Japan area and I saw the different items they had on display that had been burned/impacted by the A-bomb (even from many, many miles away), it really made clear on my mind the shock and pain it must have been for everybody who lived through this era in history. I would must definitely love to visit this museum again if I ever have the chance to do so.

I have never been there, although I spent a few wonderful days in NO in the ’70s. [My “thing” then was the Civil War, and there was a wonderful museum dedicated to the southern side. Have always hoped that it survived Katrina.
I am happy to see that your son has joined the Marines [my dad was a Marine, WWII, in the south Pacific. He was also a sharpshooter and telephone operator.] I wish your son all the joy and pride that goes with serving our country.
Have spent quite a bit of time watching your cruise videos, esp those for NCL. I will be cruising from Seattle WA on Sept 14th, aboard the Joy. Too bad you won’t be on that cruise, as I would love to meet you. I live in Port Angeles WA, 18 sea miles from Victoria, British Columbia, across the Straits of Juan de Fuca.
Keep up your wonderful videos…..I will be watching!
Laura

I’m sure my little people would be all about the dog tag experience too!

We had a wonderful time here and it was so much better than I expected. Some museums can be boring, but not this one! We learned a lot and had a great overall experience.

I’ve always wanted to check it out but like you, never knew why it was in New Orleans— thanks for answering that question!! I’m excited to add this to our family’s to-do list and now I know to allot more time than I would have expected.
