Out and About in the Crescent City

I've put together some ideas to keep us from getting bored and give us an authentic taste of the rich gumbo of New Orleans. I've got some prizes lined up for a digital photo scavenger hunt, so bring your camera. Besides a big night o the town on Thursday, we can do a little sightseeing after work each day too.

• SATURDAY:We can drive to Algiers Point to take the freeCanal Street / Algiers Ferry From Jackson Square we can catch the Canal St. Streetcar to get an overview of New Orleans.
  
  
• SUNDAY: Take a Haunted history walking tour of the French Quarter. A fun way to see the "dark side" of New Orleans.
  
  
• MONDAY: Visit Donna's, a live brass band jazz place.
