<p>You can always walk around the campus, but they may have some of the buildings locked. Is there anyway you could shift your visit to Tuesday-Wednesday? Probably not at this late date, but thought I would ask.</p>
<p>If not, you might want to spend more of Monday getting to know the area in general. You could walk through Audubon Park, which would take you to Magazine Street and you could walk towards downtown on Magazine and see the shops and other places that Tulane students have available to them. The nice thing about this is that eventually you get to the heart of the Garden District and you can cut back over from Magazine to St. Charles, see some beautiful homes and then catch the streetcar again. Again, just gives you the general ambiance of that whole section of New Orleans that is Tulane and close areas. You could also go past the campus on the streetcar and check out the Oak Street/Maple Street area. Just gives you more of the flavor for the areas around Tulane, and you could have a casual meal at Camillia Grill, a local favorite. Naturally you could also check out the French Quarter and the general downtown area. If you go to the FQ, make sure you see a lot more than Bourbon Street. There are fun art and antique shops on Royal and some of the other streets, as well as some great rare book stores. Of course you eventually have to make your way to Jackson Square, the Cathedral, and have some beignets at Cafe du Monde. Fair warning, if you do decide to walk through the park and down Magazine, it is something like 3-4 miles total, maybe even a bit more. Things will probably be quiet since it is Easter Monday, and NOLA is a traditionally Catholic city.</p>
<p>Then Tuesday you could have a “normal” Tulane day. If my D were going to be there on Monday I am sure she would be willing to show you around campus so you would know what you are looking at, but she doesn’t get back until late in the afternoon. I hope it all works out for you.</p>
