The beach here I come!!

So this spring break I am heading out to the west side of Florida to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. I am so excited to just relax at the beach doing absolutely nothing. We are so fortunate to live in a tropical state like Florida. I was talking to a friend of mine who's up in Michigan for school, and on her spring break she was having to deal with a blizzard!! Not fun! While we're down here in 80 degree weather laying out on a beach in a bikini! So anyways, after the beach I'm heading to New Orleans for a couple of nights. I've never been there before (well, once, in 1999 for the Sugar Bowl...GO NOLES! but I was only 12) so if you guys have any suggestions on where to go (or not to go) left me know!! Everybody have a great spring break!! I'm really going to miss them when I graduate.
