Thread: New Orleans

Sorry if this has been asked before but we are in N'Orlins for two days in December on our big cruise, the excursions don't look that inviting ...any suggestions? I saw somewhere yoiu can take a trip on one of those big Mississippi river boat thingy's, I rather fancy that, is this possible?
Key west we just think we will walk around & Port Everglades (Ft Lauderdale??) we don't have a clue. At Canaveral we are "doing Disney" well you have to ....

Besides the river boats, a streetcar ride to the garden district, walking the riverwalk area and the french quarter are interesting and fun. Lots of good food and I recommend a softshell crab Po Boy for lunch.
