10 Traveler Resources in New Orleans That You Shouldn't Miss
Laissez les bons temps rouler! In New Orleans the good times are perpetually rolling down Bourbon Street, which, thanks to the city’s annual Mardi Gras celebration, has quite a party animal reputation. Once you’ve soaked up the scenery of the historic French Quarter, tour the elegant Garden District and meet the colorful characters of Frenchmen Street. Experience the city's supernatural vibe at the Voodoo Museum or by taking a guided ghost or vampire tour through taverns, alleyways, and cemeteries.

The Cita Dennis Hubbell Library which opened in 1907 is a tiny historic gem in Algiers Point. My son and I have spent the past two years enjoying this quaint library. We often visit to check out books, complete homework, and participate in some of the amazing programs that are offered like Reading to Thor. We even participated in a specialized healthy cooking class during American Heart Month last year. We absolutely miss our weekly visits since the beginning of this Covid19 Pandemic. However, I am happy that appointments can be made for 45 minutes visits to browse materials and contactless visits are available to pick up books. Special thanks to the Librarian Chris for helping me resolve some minor problems with my library card and assisting me with selecting a few books about Thanksgiving. My son and I miss the library but we are truly happy to have a way to obtain needed materials during the pandemic. Keep up the great work during these challenging times.

My hotel was right around the corner from the Basin Street Station and I'd been left off at the station after a cemetery tour I'd participated in. What a nice place! They have a hop on hop off tour and loads of information available for visitors! Also some lovely train displays!

The NRECA convention was held here. This place is huge. The only problem was they were replacing the front entrance to the center. There were over 8000 of us attending but it was easy to get around.
