where to go in Louisiana?
We are planning a trip to Louisiana probably in April. The problem is, we aren't sure exactly where to go. We are looking for a place somewhat centrally located that would allow us to stay in one spot while we are there. We really want to experience the Cajun culture. So a location where we can see some of the "tourist" attractions, such as a couple of plantation homes, spend a day in the French Quarter, listen to some great music, and sample some of the local cuisines. We'll probably want to run down to Grand Isle, and definately take in a good swamp tour. But we'd also like some find some "off the beaten path", must see, gem spots(which is what I really would like some help with). I've been kind of researching the Houma area as it looks like it could be centrally located, but I would like to hear from some locals and folks who are familiar with the area for some good recommendations.
