A timeless city with a unique way of life, New Orleans is steeped in European traditions and Caribbean influences. The Big Easy is an enticing, culturally rich haven, and home to many festivals, sights, events and cultural attractions. Make the Most of your Visit in the Crescent City with these free attractions: * Head Uptown and find The Fly, a swathe of green space behind Audubon Zoo on the Mississippi River. Sunsets there are lovely. * Walk through Crescent Park on the riverfront, with its city views, accessed just past the French Market at Elysian Fields. You can walk all the way to Bywater. * Attend the many free festivals on just about any weekend and the Satchmo Summer Festival in August. * Take a free tour of the Nola Brewing Company and dip into the local craft beer scene. Tours are Friday and Saturday afternoons. * Walk around the lake in City Park, where you just might sneak up on a dozing turtle or surprise a yellow-footed egret into flight. * Take a walking tour with a park ranger from the French Quarter Visitor Center, part of the National Park Service. Tuesdays through Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. rangers lead a group of 25 on an hour-long history walk For more information visit: http://www.esa.org/neworleans If you have any questions, please contact the Program Chair, Timothy Schowalter (tschowal...@agcenter.lsu.edu) or the ESA Science Programs Coordinator, Jennifer Riem (jenni...@esa.org).
