[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone done this? Kids spring break is April 6-13. I think this is a good time of year to go.

Any recommendations on places to stay and things to do? Looking at Residence Inn on Charles st because having a kitchenette is nice, but open to other suggestions.[/quote]

10-13 of April [/quote]

FQF is fun but very crowded. I agree it’s a good time of year to go. It’ll probably be warm enough to swim to try to find a place with a pool.

I love wandering the French Quarter and Marigny, but Uptown is also lovely and would be a nice break from the FQF crowds. Also take the streetcar to City Park to see bayous, spanish moss, and a very good art museum.

If you have a car, you could drive a couple hours west to cajun country, or a couple hours east to Mississippi beaches. If you go to a plantation, make sure it’s the Whitney. https://whitneyplantation.org/

The MS beaches aren’t exactly nice but there are some interesting little towns (Bay St Louis for example). I’ve been meaning to check out this Gehry-designed museum dedicated to George Ohr in Biloxi: https://georgeohr.org/

You can do a lot over a spring break![/quote]
