Go to the Bourbon House and get a Bourbon Milk Punch. Its a milkshake w/ bourbon, It's good.......
We stayed at the French Market Inn and really enjoyed it. Bourbon Street was a short walk as was Jackson Square and Cafe Dumonde.
If somebody asks if you want your shoes shined or "I can tell you where you got your shoes" just keep moving.

Take a road trip to Grand Isle for the day, walk on the beach, and eat some good seafood.

I hope you love the smell of peepee and vomit. I was just there and no bad smell other than some standing water was a little funky.

agree with comments that New Orleans weather is terrible in August....suggest you take another couple days off and drive up to Estes Park,Co. just north of Denver and go to Rocky Mtn national park...weather is a whole lot better than New Orleans and the wildlife/scenery viewing is great... (your chances of getting mugged are just about zero)...
