WWLanD... if she were planning a night out for a date

i guess because i'm a hopeless romantic, i like to conjure up some ideas for dates-- something fun, something different, something romantic... just something. here are a couple of ideas i've come up with:

 

Date senario #1:

• martin wine cellar to pick out a bottle of wine
• baru for dinner (they do not serve alcohol, but they do have a corking fee)
• a walk through the neighborhood
• desert/pastry/gelato shop

 

Date senario #2

• dinner at a any restaurant in the french quarter
• some type of tour- the haunted ghost tour, the carriage tour...
• cafe du monde for dessert/beignets
• a walk along the moon walk

Date senario #3

• this would be great for a Tuesday
• dinner/tapas at Rambla
• free salsa lessons at Le Phare (and a drink or 2)
• night topper at Loa
• all a block from one another

 

Date senario #4

• the street car date
• this is can be done any time of the day-- just be weary of what part of town you are in
• start at one end of the street car line
• your ultimate destination is at other end of the street car line or a previously choosen destination like a spiffy restaurant or the like
• take your time and get off to enjoy different parts of the street car line (quick bite to eat, shopping, drink, a 
• walk... what ever catches your attention)
• tips:   - open alcoholic beverages are not allowed on the street car (stop at bars for a drink)
           - take a ride up and down the street car line just to get an idea where you will be & where there is to go
           - consider how you will be getting back (taxi, streetcar, etc.)
           - if you are going to shop, remember you have to lug your goodies around with you
