I'm still debating on whether we should do the swamp tour or the grave tour and where to go for breakfast on sunday. Comments and thoughts?

Looks like fun! Be sure to get the BBQ shrimp at Mr. B's, one of my favorite things in the world.

For breakfast Sunday, you may want to check out The Surrey in the garden district. Love their food. Sometimes there's a line, but it never takes too long.

The graveyard tour is nice. Be sure it includes St Louis #1 - burial place of Marie Laveau, many great local musicians, Benjamin Latrobe (Architect of US Capitol building), and the Italian Society Tomb where a scene from Easy Riders was filmed.

You may consider a trolley ride into the Garden District and up to Tulane. You could have lunch at Magnolia Grill at the corner of St Charles and Carrolton.

Overall, you have a nice itinerary.

Thanks for the tips guys. Looks like I might be there longer than planned due to the hurricane.
