well coming from someone who lived there most of their life, i can only think of one question: why? its a desent place to visit i guess. make sure you stay in a good hotel. maids have sticky fingers in the cheap ones. if you go anywhere downtown, be sure to carry only the amount of cash you need for the night or like ONE credit card. and carry it in you front pocket. the pick-pockets are extremely well trained. and well...once you are toasted there is no telling how many rounds you might buy. so if you only carry a little money and you spend it all....you still have some to get home. stay out of any alley and the gay bars. unless your into that sorta thing. *not making any judgements so please, no flames* although should you happen into one of these bars....you might not make it out. and i am talking about the little hole-in-the-wall places. not the big ones...they are pretty safe. well sorta. well, maybe. well, you get the idea. burdon street is fun. don't pass out though. the clean machines will hurt when they hit you in the gutter the next morning. go to Pat'O's for a good drink. and bring you pepto (pink stuff) if you aren't used to good..rrr..i mean spicey foods. and yes, EVERYTHING, is served with tobasco sauce and you ARE execpted to use it. other than that, hope you have a good time. good luck. bring a friend or five. and take lots of pictures b/c man you gonna see some craaaaaaaaaazy stuff that your freind's back home will nevery believe.

p.s. make sure you will is up to date before you leave. if you don't have one, GET one. (no joke) :frown:
/edit i forgot, catfish comes fried, oysters come raw, if you mispronounce crawfish you will be thrown out and if you don't like seafood, for the love of all that is good on this earth, please go to a steak joint.
