 | A good place to start: NewOrleansOnline.com |
Hotels: It is handy to live in Bourbon street, both at night and day time after some shopping. As long it's not Mardi Gras, you can find a lot of hotels even when you land at the airport
| Royal Sonesta is the hotel I have stayed the most in. |
Shopping: I always end up with more music CDs when I go through New Orleans, the music stores are open until very late. Down at the water front you get all you need, but there are huge shopping malls out by the airport too.

Sightseeing:
| Horse carriage ride at sun set (the Quarter changes and also the sounds) |
| Trip on the Missisipi |
| Garden district (big houses!) |
| New Orleans street cars |
| Aquarium |
| Jackson square |
Eating: You will find nice food every where, there is really no need to mention any. If you get a table on one of the balconies, you get a good view of the people in the street.
| Pat O'Briens is a very good start! |
