Hi. Sorry for the delay, my laptop died Saturday. Got my new one yesterday. Trying to keep up on an iPad is no fun.

Totally agree that no car needed, especially if you can stay at one of the hotels right on St. Charles, like the Drury. Also the Hampton Inn is right next to the Drury (or maybe that was a Best Western, which is another choice), and I have gotten some good rates from the Hampton. It just depends on what is in town then and how full they are looking. But you just hop on the streetcar towards Tulane for that visit, and the other way to get down to the French Quarter, etc. if you want to go there. Also it is an easy walk from those hotels to Magazine Street, a popular place for shopping, eating and fun from time to time, and also you walk by very nice homes. With at least two of you going, cab is best from the airport.
