Last week we asked our Facebook Fans and Twitter Followers why they loved New Orleans. As you can imagine, the response was overwhelming. We had more than 70 comments in less than 12 hours. We quickly realized what we had already suspected — there is an endless list of reasons to love New Orleans. While it’s simply impossible to narrow that list down to the very best reasons to love NOLA, we thought we’d share with you 10 of our favorite reasons which you shared with us.
