My friends and I are taking a vacation trip to New Orleans next week. We're from California, and haven't done much outside our state other than Vegas and Mexico.

Any suggestions from anyone who's been on things to do/see etc?

Went with a few of my friends for a couple days once. We got there Thursday evening. Left Sunday morning.

One of my friends never say daylight new Orleans until the day we left. Pretty much partied all night, slept during the day, and didn't leave the hotel until night time.

I've always found it funny.

Fun place

ACME Oyster House. Get the grilled oysters. Also try the fried oysters and shucked on a half shell.

Mother's - great Po'Boys

Dookie Chase's - great gumbo and fried chicken.

Do not go to the Voodoo Museum. Scared the shit out of me.

What was scary about it? What about it makes you not recommend going?

It just felt wrong. Like I shouldn't be there. It felt like no one should be there. I'm not religious or anything but there was a bad vibe. Eyeballs in jars, a chicken crucified on a cross, dolls with nails hammered into them - just some ill shit in there.

I forgot to mention Emeril Lagasse's restaurant in New Orleans - skip it. Unless you like Denny's style food with a New Orleans influence. I'm only slightly exagerrating. The place was a letdown. Not bad but not very good. Go to Dookie Chase's instead.
