There's nothing like a fountain and a magnum of French Champagne to make you right again.

laissez les bons temps rouler

by steph4867 - last update: Oct 21, 2002

The unofficial state motto, laissez les bons temps rouler (let the good times roll), pretty much says it all for most people - and let there be no mistake, New Orleans rolls plenty. Called by some 'The City That Care Forgot,' New Orleans has a well-earned reputation for excess and debauchery. Though this is certainly a big draw, so is its (ahem) colorful history and unique cultural gumbo of African, Indian, Cajun and Creole influences. Whether you're looking for history, drama and intrigue or just a damn good bop in the street, New Orleans has a flavor like no other city in North America. Tant pis pour nous!

 You've given excellent information and you're right about the Spanish background :-) I've got one of those cafe du monde hats...lol Looks like a great trip - but how it could not be there:-)
