New Orleans is legendary in so many ways... for its music, its food and its never-ending party atmosphere. No wonder they call it The Big Easy -- it's so easy to have fun!

Eat it up
Juicy jambalaya. Crayfish etouffée. Spicy andouille sausage. Whether your tastes run to Cajun, Creole or fine dining, you'll find New Orleans is a city devoted to the pleasures of good eating. From homestyle to haute, there's something here for every palate. And don't miss the classic New Orleans breakfast: fresh beignets and chicory-laced coffee. Just what you need to get you going for a great day with The DMA!

Drink it up
What other city in the world has a street named for liquor? Bourbon Street, the center of New Orleans nightlife, is a little bit of honky tonk and a whole lotta fun. Order yourself a Hurricane -- the signature New Orleans cocktail in a hurricane lamp glass, and find out what the fuss is all about.

Listen up
New Orleans is the home of jazz. Dixieland and other jazz forms got their start here, in the city where Louis Armstrong and many other jazz greats were born. Add to that the sound of Zydeco, rock and country, for a stompin' music scene. The music's in the air ... and at great clubs all around town.

Walk it up
New Orleans is a great walking city. Not too big and lots of foot-friendly places. You won't want to miss the famous French Quarter. You might want to take in the Voodoo Museum. There's great antiquing, and wonderful people watching from charming sidewalk cafes.
