Heading to the Big Easy

January 25, 2005 1:19 PM

Speaking of New Orleans, I am going to Mardi Gras with some friends but would like some off-the-beaten-path suggestions for things to do. Stuff like jazz, cemeteries, unique cuisine, etc. (with no major budgetary concerns).

From my memory of MG 2000, Bourbon Street gets pretty old pretty quickly.

I took a ferry boat across the river and back. I stood at the front and watched the big boats go by. It was free, I think.
