Interesting places in New Orleans

New Orleans is one of my favorite places. I am not fond of cities-don’t like jazz-and I’d take a burger over jambalaya any day. What makes it so great?


I like the different neighborhoods, the old southern houses and the friendly people. Sure, Bourbon Street in the French Quarter is fun-but the crowds of tourists, drunks, etc. get old very quickly. The locals never visit the Quarter-only tourists.

Here are some fun things to do. Visit the Garden District. Buy a three day trolley pass for twelve dollars and ride, ride, ride. Go to the end of St Charles street-get off at interesting houses, street fairs, and park. A film company was shooting a movie and actors, crews and equipment were everywhere.
