If you're taking the kids out for a while and you don't want to pay outrageous admission prices, head for Independence Park. The area features lots of great amenities like playground rides, picnic tables, a soccer field and baseball diamond, walking trails, and a tennis center. It is one of the city's busiest parks not only because of the impressive features but also because of its central location. Other added attractions include a shuffle board area, and an area for skateboarding. There's something for everyone in the family at this park.
The combination of gambling and heading out to sea is both romantic and adventurous. So take on all the adventure the two of you can handle on Casino Rouge. This floating casino replicates an old time paddle wheeler, and you can float and gamble at the same time! Plus, if all that betting is getting you hungry, enjoy the all-you-can-eat buffet and then take a cozy stroll on deck.
Get a taste of what life was like in Louisiana before the industrial revolution when you visit the Rural Life Museum and Windrush Gardens. The museum's credo is to commemorate and preserve history and educate future generations about not only the advances that have occurred up to this point, but the ones we will likely encounter in the future. Through various classes, field trips, and special exhibits, the museum offers several opportunities to dig deeper into various aspects of everything that came before.
