I have taken many trips to New Orleans. I used to love going down the week before Christmas - not as many tourists, no long waits for restaurants, better hotel options, no lines at attractions and just a very relaxing, pre-Christmas holiday feel to the town. I will go back someday, but not until I can emotionally prepare for the post-Katrina changes. It makes me sad that such a vital region of our country will never be the same.

I was born there, and lived in and around NO until I was 18. I go back regularly. The last time I was there was July, 2005. I live in China, and I can't tell you how it broke my heart to watch from so far away as Katrina approached, moved east, and then devastated the most interesting city I've ever known, and I've lived in and visited some interesting cities around the world.

Just got back from there on Monday and had a blast. I ate a ton of food and partied my *** off. Go, have fun! It hasn't changed much at all. Check out a tour of the lower 9th ward, you need to see what happened there, you will be shocked! I'm still talking about it. I will have pictures up soon.

Yes, I went to NO when I was 17 doin the family thing. It sucked big time, only because legal age for everything, and I do mean everything, was 18. Being shy of a year, it sucked big time. Haven't been there since.
