New Orleans
 

If you only had 2 days in New Orleans, what would you absolutely not want to miss?? Thanks!

Cajun Flea Circus on Rampart Street.

Bieniettes (sp) at Cafe du Monde and stroll around Jackson Square.

The concerts at Preservation Hall and a muffelato (sp) sandwich. I also thought the Greyline tour of the city was worthwhile.

A stroll through the Garden District.

The House of the Rising Sun.

Bourbon Street, French Market, Jackson Square and drinks with Mr. and Mrs. Kal.

Thanks so much for your ideas. We will definitely make note of them.
