Neighborhoods
Another New Orleans waterway worth visiting is the Bayou St. John and the Mid-City neighborhood situated around it. Mid-City tends to have a more low-key and laid-back vibe compared to other popular areas, and it’s chock-full of neighborhood bars that especially come alive during the NFL/college football season, World Cup, and other peak sports-viewing hours. Not to be left out, Mid-City has its own established and up-and-coming locales, from hot spots such as Banks Street Bar & Grill and Twelve Mile Limit to newcomers, including SideBar Nola and The Drifter Hotel.

Your trip to New Orleans would be complete without mention of its most famous—and infamous—neighborhood, the French Quarter. Here, you will find some of the oldest architecture still existing in the city, particularly the Spanish influences that seem to defy the neighborhood’s historical name. Bourbon Street may be many tourists’ ultimate destination in the French Quarter, or New Orleans in general, but this area offers a great deal more than the bars and strip clubs that sometimes dominate tourism marketing materials. From strolls along the Mississippi River and guided ghost and cemetery tours to restaurants both modern (SoBou, Restaurant R’evolution) and historical (Antoine’s, Galatoire’s), the French Quarter always has something exciting and inviting to behold.l

If you don’t feel like the drive or hustle and bustle of downtown, Kenner’s Rivertown is also worth visiting. Located along the shores of the mighty Mississippi River, Kenner's Rivertown is a sixteen-block historic district offering a host of local eateries, cultural and family attractions like the Planetarium & MegaDome Cinema. You can also stroll or ride your bike along the Mississippi River.

Parks and Recreation
This park is one of my favorites! Enjoy a picnic, feed the ducks, enjoy the 2-mile jogging trail and athletic equipment, splash park, dog park and multiple play grounds.
