If traffic is bad you can just take any of the parallel streets between there and the river. (I like Prytania.) They all end up at Audubon Park!  Glad your fall wasn't too bad and you didn't get run over by the streetcar.  I think the heat index was really off the charts that day because of the humidity.

We used to live both in the French Quarter and Uptown and hands down Uptown is far more difficult to maneuver.  But you can cover the French Quarter in five minutes on a bike, so what are your choices?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Oh, I just remembered!  (train of thought in a comment, you gotta love it)  Everyone rides their bikes along River Road.  You would have loved that!!!  They have special bike paths that travel along the levee and dog parks all along the way with tons of dogs playing with their cute owners. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I am quickly falling in loud, passionate love with your blog.  Now, ahem, playdate?
