Also there are 2 nights where they do Caroling in the Park which is fun. Also can be a bit surreal if you are from up north like me (Minnesota) to be drinking daiquiries in shorts during a nice 70 degree evening singing Xmas carols....
70 degrees at night in December is NOT the norm for New Orleans, is it? I enjoy the city year-round but I recall the winters still being rather brisk, especially at night.
