 Re: where to visit
You'll need a passport and a visa.
And bring Saban back and drop him off in Baton Rouge.

 Re: where to visit
I saw a tv program the other day about the Alabama vs Auburn, sorry, Auburn vs Akabama rivalry and it was sick.

 Re: where to visit
If you want to see Stephensville call Uncle J. If you want to see Loreauville call Gator Tail.

 Re: where to visit
All of Louisiana is fun, however your time will probably be limited and not able to see everything. I have lived in Baton Rouge most of my life with the exception of my time in the Marine Corps. My wife is from Franklin, LA and litterally grew up on the Bayou. Most out of towners enjoy New Orleans the most. Not just because you can drink alot but from a historical point of view there are so many cool things to see. My family owns a building in the Quarter so I have been going there for the past 31 years. Food will be good no matter where you go in South Louisiana. If you have a chance a swamp tour would probably be pretty cool. Baton Rouge is fun but will have no where near the things to see. It is only about an hour to Baton Rouge if you are in New Orleans though. I could go on and on so if you have any specific questions let me know and I will be happy to give you some places see or do depending on where you will be visiting.

 Re: where to visit
New Orleans is fun....usually. But I like the "outskirts" You could do a HWY 90 ride and cruise through Morgan City all the way to Lafayette, Breaux Bridge and then hit BTR.
with everyone on this board you could do a MMT Louisiana tour......I'de be happy to take you by the Houmas House here in my neck of the woods. And if time permitted, I could make a pass down the Blind River and show you some local flair, bars on the river, gators, camps, that kinda stuff.

I've taken a few people that wanted to see new Orleans to the "new Orleans school of cooking" costs twenty five bucks, lasts maybe about two hours and you eat what is cooked. It's entertaining and it tastes good too!
