Highly recommend going to St. James Parish to the small towns of Lutcher and Gramercy to watch the lighting of the bonfires on the levee of the MS. river. This is where I grew up and it is just one big party. It's truly amazing seeing all the bonfires that line the levee and all the people that will invite you into their homes along the river road for gumbo or jambalaya. You can experience all this on Christmas Eve starting at 6:00 and be back in the French Quarter by 10:00 if you so choose.
