In the distance: the waters of Lake Pontchartrain. In the air: warmth, and maybe the fragrant smell of red beans and rice cooking. Your senses tell you you're in Cajun country, and they’re right. Parlez-vous français? Then you know the suburb of Metairie is named for the 18th-century French sharecroppers. Farms and wildlife preserves give you the rural getaway you crave, but the lure of the French Quarter and the thrills of New Orleans’ Bourbon Street beckon from just a few miles away.
