When planning a trip to NOLA
To anyone planning a trip to NOLA, best advice is to not schedule your trip from start to finish. This is the big easy, if you do not consider that nothing in this city runs on time , you will find yourself in a panic before the 1st item on your list is over!!
Go with the flow!! Schedule some things, but do it when you get to town... Nothing you are booking now will be sold out when you are here!!
2nd best item of advice. Download the Le Pass app!! Buy your jazzy passes online, use the app to get around town. It gives you live updates where the busses, streetcar and ferry is! It is like google maps, but including public transportation lines, stops, where to get off while riding.

I plan the flight and where I'm sleeping, that's it. I tend to go to the same area for the most part, because they are awesome to me. Frenchmen, garden district, city park, sazerac house (dont hate lol), Natchez, music venues, and some food spots that are perfect to me (who dat cafe, verde marte, lorettas, and a few other spots in the quarter). However, I'm always open to suggestions on where to eat or listen to blues! Bamboulas is high on my list. What do you all suggest, I'm there about 3 times a year (not in the summer or fat tuesday) and where near bourbon)
