We are already planning on heading to Cafe Du Monde (my favorite, I love beignets), Hard Rock Cafe (the better half wants to go and add to her collection of Hard Rock Bears), The Aquarium (another favorite of mine), IMAX, Riverwalk, French Quarter, and Audubon Park. Some of the other places I've looked at are the Napoleon House, Barataria Preserve (what can I say, I'm an outdoorsman), and The Creole Queen Dinner Jazz Cruise (I love Jazz Music). Also thought it would be cool to go eat at one of Emeril's Places, even though the prices are nuts.

Any thoughts, opinions, ideas would be great. We will only be there for a few days, can't really afford to stay a long time with work, etc back home, but will be there Sunday Morning to Tuesday evening.

You need to go Irvin Mayfields Jazz Plahouse at the Royal Sonesta... show every night.
Try to be out of the Quarter for 11.
Don't walk alone.
Take a carriage ride, take ride down St. Charles Ave on the Street Car.
If you want a good burger hit the Alibi, if you walking on Bourbon from Canal take the first left at Redfish Grill (which is pretty good) it will be on your right.
You can also Hit Deanies if you don't want to break to the bank, it's a pretty nice place. Order light because you get a lot.
