The streetcars do a good job of getting you ALL around the FQ and Garden District, but youre still on foot alot. And, honestly, I'd rather save walking around like that until its cooler, like Halloween. Even those tours are hellish at this time of year.
Might be easier to just head to BR on Sat. Maybe do something corny like the Myrtles or whatever.

^ thanks
I think we have decided to wait until later in the fall to come down? so its not so freaking hot, maybe halloween or sum sum? To all of you living there you have any good links to places that give airboat rides through the swamps? so we dont get a shitty tour.

Mr. Toeknee, did I talk to you at the Marriott?...i was there cooking a function with UNO out of the 3rd floor banquet kitchen towards the end of the spring...also, our garage is owned by an outside company so i do not have any pull w/ the garage, but if the Marriott falls through there is a lot on the corner of Conti and Rampart that is gated with an attendant, i use to park there for 2 yrs straight before i got promoted at the Sonesta, they almost always have spots available

conti and rampart? you parking at the Funky Butt?
I know you know that area better than I, but I'd be freaked out to leave my car on Rampart overnight.. even with armed guards.

^^^haha...no, not the funky butt...its across the street from the chevron & police station...you're right it's kinda sketchy, but the lot i'm referring to is setup pretty nice...only 1 way in and out, and the attendant is the first thing you see when you come in...not to mention that 80% of the cars at any given time are usually employees at the hotel
