Is there a place in the French Quarter in New Orleans that will sleep around 10 people?

I'm having my bachelorette party there and we'd all like to stay in the same place (not 2 completely separate hotel rooms). Are there apartments/townhomes/cottages with weekend rates?

Check with New Orleans Bed & Breakfast:

E-Mail: nobba@cox.net
Tel. 888-240-0070 or 504-561-0447

Good luck!

Should i go to New Orleans or Vegas for my 21st birthday?

I live in houston tx so new orleans would be closer and a lil more inexpensive considering i could just drive there but my father is paying for it eather way so money is not an issue…. so should i go to the strip or spend my BDAY on Bourbon street?

Go to Las Vegas.

As you pointed out in your question you can drive to New Orleans for a weekend anytime. Also, the French Quarter Festival was last weekend (17th to 19th) and the JazzFest is the last weekend in April + the first weekend in May each year. Unless you can go to the JazzFest at this late date for arrangements, New Orleans is about to enter the summertime low season for tourism and events. Houston and New Orleans have the same climate, so also you know what the humidity will be like in July/August….. LV will be hot, but not humid, and the weather doesn't really matter there (everything is indoors).

The next really good event in New Orleans will be Halloween, which is like a 1-night Mardi Gras.

Hope you have a great time!

I would like to go on a bicycle tour of Banksy graffitti art in New Orleans. How can I find them?

I know there are at least six maybe more Banksy murals around New Orleans. I'm looking for physical addresses so I can plot a bike route around town to see them all. Any help would be appreciated.

Check out the following link from our local newspaper: http://www.nola.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2008/09/british_artist_takes_graffiti.html

It gives some of the locations of the art around the city, but some may be too far for a mere bike ride.

Can you make a career out of making Mardi Gras costumes in New Orleans?

I want to move to New Orleans and I have a lot of experience making costumes for professional theatre companies. Are there independent people who make them? Do you have to be part of a Krew?

Sure why not? Why limit yourself to Mardi Gras, why not make costumes for rentals throughout the year.
