Re: new orleans

Hey Theresa and Andrea
New Orleans is Linda and my favorite city.  It is all
that Andrea mentioned.  Also if you have the time just sit by the Mississippi,
watch it go by and listen to the local jazz. Great way to spend an afternoon. 
Walk around the Garden District and check out the mansions.  Beautiful.  If
you have some time you might want to drive around the area and see some of the
plantations and surrounding flora and fauna.
Have fun.  You sure are
travelling a lot lately.  Good for you.
David

Oh girl-I am
soooooooooooooooo jealous! Make sure and go to Cafe Dumonde for 
coffee and
beinets-touristy, but a must for New Orleans. Um, stay away from 
Bourbon
Street unless you want to be surrounded by stip bars and vomit in 
the
street.  The Court of the Two Sisters is a fabulous place for dinner. 
Acme
Seafood is a must if you want fried seafood and local color. The 
Riverwalk
Mall is great for shopping but the French Quarter is too and the 
shops are
much more fun. You will be amazed at the plant life. Pothos grow 
outside
there with the leaves getting as big as dinner plates or bigger. The 
statuary
is fantastic-see a graveyard if you can but go in the day time with 
someone
else or a tour group-thugs hang out around there sometimes. LISTEN 
to what
the locals tell you about what streets to stay off of after dark. 
They aren't
making it up. Just see as much as you can! I swear I'd move 
there if I had a
fantastic job. It's wonderful, and dirty and fun and there 
are people of all
shapes, sizes, colors, manner of dress. It's great!
