The area around the D-day Museum is a nice area...revitalized warehouse district. Go to "Mother's" and get a (I forget the name exactly) fall out sandwich (all the stuff that falls off the roast reef). There is usually a line out the door during lunch. Mothers (I think that's the right name) is on the corner of Canal and Notre Dame or Magazine I think (I thinK!). You know the memory ain't so great from the times in "Nawlins"
The Riverwall Mall will be fun for the kids. Jackson Square is fun too. Street performers seem to always be around.
Visit the Cathodral at Jackson Square (I never have gone inthere, but I hear it's worth the 5 minutes)
Take a ride on the Streat Car. The Garden District is cool. Ann Rice's house is across from some park that I can't remember, but not far off St. Charles St. Not that you'd get invited in or anything...but cool to show the kids..if they know who Ann Rice is.
There's a place call "Gumbo" that I like for Cajun food in the Quarter.
There is a Saturday Farmer's Market in the warehouse district that is cool. Rock and ROll Sushi is fun...(I think that's what it's called).
The Piano Bar at Pat O's is fun. There is an old guy there that must be 100 yrs old who stands there with a serving tray and bounce a quarter to the piano tunes.
There is this Cajun place on Canel away from the Quarter that serves the best food. It's in an old house and has been there for years! I think it's called Marjan's or something...I can find out. But it's good. Have the crab leg appetizer..
Next time I visit...I'll have to try and be sober for at least one whole day.
