If you read my tip on McDonald's in New Orleans, you will know that the people here do not move at the same speed as many of us out-of-towners. This is especially true for those of us from places where it is cold; we just move and talk much faster. So when you are in New Orleans and you think the service is too slow, just relax and be patient. Time is different there. Besides, you're supposed to be on vacation!

BruceDunning Wed Aug 19, 2009 22:12 UTC Great description of the things to do and see. It has been years since I have been here, but still remember the headache and next day hangover. What a place to party hard.	TravellerMel Tue Jun 30, 2009 19:47 UTC You have a wonderful NOLA page - excellent insight with your tips, and the photos made me homesick! Well done!
Escadora7 Wed Oct 8, 2008 17:06 UTC Great New Orleans Page - it's been way too long since my last visit! All the best, Eve	donpaul77 Thu Jun 26, 2008 00:30 UTC Good tourist trap tip on the "haunted tours". I went on one and bailed out as soon as we got near Bourbon Street. It was awful! I love New Orleans, though...nice pages!
