There is lots to do during the day!

There are several companies that offer Swamp Tours- Dr. Wagners Honey Island is a really good one.

You can take a Cemetary Tour, Plantation Tour, Katrina Tour, French Quarter Tour. There is the Zoo and the Aquarium. Ride the Street car through the Garden District. There are many historic homes in the French Quarter: The Cabildo and Presbytere, St. Louis Cathedral, Pontalba Apts. US Mint,
Beauregard-Keyes House, Gallier House, Pitot House, Cornstalk Fence Hotel, Edgar Degas House, Hermann Grima House, LongVue House and Gardens. Just walking through the French Quarter is an experience taking in all the iron work and architecture.

Grab a Muffaletta and some Zapps from Central Grocery and take a walk over to the Moonwalk and relax and enjoy watching the boats travel along the Mississippi.

Mardi Gras world just opened a new exhibit near the Convention Center. NOMA is the Art Museum at City Park. There is also exhibits in The PResbytere and Cabildo. WWII Museum, Confederate Museum….

I could go on and on and on. I have been to New Orleans close to 30 times and still have not done all the things I want to!
