100 Places To See In Your Lifetime-Heaven On Earth#100-New Orleans, Louisiana-"If truth be told, New Orleans had been included in the 100 selections for this book. This is a city unlike any other in the world. Then came the dreadful waters, and the destruction. For the time being, things aren't so easy in The Big Easy.

New Orleans will overcome, and we'll be thrilled in our next edition to return it to its rightful place in our list of 100."
