| New Orleans General information about the Big Easy Lodging |
| Was my favorite New Orleans site, and still has all sorts of information, hotels, online reservations, restaurants, calendar, but it's more advertising and less information than it used to be. Still has good hotel discounts through TurboTrip. |
| General site with lots of different info, news, weather, calendar, and great food reviews. |
| The Times-Picayune and other community links, including the infamous live cams. |
| Aquarium and Zoo, good enough even if they didn't host the Cajun/Zydeco Louisiana Swamp Festival in October. |
| Eccentric? New Orleans? Who would have thought it? Lots of off-the-wall stuff, interesting and sometimes bizarre characters, and the unusual that is not so unusual in this city. |
| These folks run the buses and trolleys. For five bucks you can get an RTA pass and ride all day. |

| Lodging - find a place to stay Of course you can use the web travel services like Expedia, Yahoo Travel, Travelocity, etc., but here are some links to New Orleans travel and lodging information. |

| Another good list of N.O. hotels with descriptive information. |
| Wanna camp and see the Fest? Take a look at their listings. |
| These folks have B&Bs, apartments, and houses for rent. Met Liz' sister Priscilla at the Hackberry Ramblers. |
| This is my kind of French Quarter hotel. Great location right on Decatur, near 201, Carmelo's and O'Flaherty's. Always had pleasant stays here. You can get great off-season, e.g. Xmas, discounts through Turbo Trip. |
| Never stayed at any of these B&B places, but their web sites look really cool. I must give them a try one of these trips. |
| Lists of hotels, with descriptions and links. |
| Robert and Lisa have used this service and recommend it for French Quarter stays. |
| CAUTION! Beware of unlicensed "brokers" offering great "insider" deals. Some of our Fans have had bitter experiences. |
 |
| AKA The Southern Yat Hysterical Society. We share links with these folks, who appear to be every bit as crazy as I am. If you don't know what a "Yat" is, check this out. |
| Crescent City Farmers Market Very nice web site. Good opportunity to pick up some wholesome food. Check out the Recipe of the Week and other recipes. |
