There are plenty of places (from the obvious to places that aren't exactly on your radar) to book a ticket for your last adventure of 2017.
Over the course of three hundred and sixty-five days, you celebrated events like promotions or raises, births, or weddings, as well as small victories like catching the bus to work or matching up with that stunner on the Bumblebee.

New Orleans is not the kind of town for a quiet night. Especially New Year's Eve.
