Welcome to Fodors. We removed the Trip Report tag and added tags for the states between Florida and Texas.

New Orleans is definitely worth a few days. There are wonderful historic houses all around the neighboring areas.
Talladega National Forest makes for a pretty drive in Alabama. There are some scenic waterfalls to hike to as well and the sky drive. Destin Cedar Key When you're in and around Tampa check out: Dali Museum, Busch Gardens, Big Cat Sanctuary, Sunken Gardens, The Florida Aquarium, Fort De Soto Park, ZooTampa at Lowry Park, Botanical Gardens, Clearwater Marine Aquarium, and Museum of Science & Industry (MOSI). If you're going further out within a 2-hour radius there's Bok Tower Gardens, Weeki Wachee Spring, Tarpon Springs, Crystal River to swim with the manatees, Ringling Museum in Sarasota, For nice beaches: Honeymoon Island State Park in Dunedin, Fred Howard Park in Tarpon Springs, Siesta Key, Captiva, and Sanibel Doc Ford's Rum Bar & Grille is a good restaurant in St. Pete on the pier |
Browsing through these photographs might give you some ideas for New Orleans:
