HAWAII one Week With Sun-Tim- NEW ORLEANS Bourbon Street is the place where people come from all over the country and do what they wouldnt dare do at home for fear of looking like: (A) a tourist (B) a lush (C) a farmboy. AS A RESULT, the street, 14 blocks of whoopee that cuts through New Orleans French quarter, is to dawn. jammed with people from The street is a topless, syncopated Disneyland filled with curbside musicians, exuberant tourists, flower sellers and hot dog vendors (who are sometimes also undercover cops), bars, restaurants and shops that cater to the whims of souvenir buyers who have hoisted some too many. At night, it is crowded with tourists having a wonderful time getting drunk and listening to the music that spills from the bars or watching the shills who stand in the entrances to the nude bars and flap the doors open for brief peeks at the men and women inside. BECAUSE THE STREET is closed to all but emergency traffic in the evenings, the tourists spill onto the asphalt from the bumpy, aging sidewalks. Many of them carry glasses shaped like the chimney of a hurricane lamp. These are testimony to the drawing power of Pat OBriens Bar, St. Peter and Bourbon, just next door to the famed Preservation Hall, where the elderly musicians who created Dixieland show they still do it best. The bar serves a kayo cocktail called Hurricane Punch in that g glass that the buyer can keep. John Bender, the citys public information officer, says the bar claims to sell more liquor retail than any other bar in the world, not surprising in view of liquor laws that let you buy drinks round the clock. OBRIENS MAY HAVE the crowds but the Old Absinthe House at the other end of the street has the bar is atmosphere. The cool, dark, copper-covere- d the place to drink a fine mint julep and watch the crowd flow through the streets. Its walls are covered with business cards, mostly from Southern real estate agents or engineers, and its bartenders go about their work under a ceiling hung with pro football players jerseys and the promotional flotsam and jetsam that seem to pile up in taverns. mid-momi- r j funny-lookin- $479 FROM 1 Induding Los 43fAir Fare S.L.

The stores are owned by one man, says the Bourbon Street Merchants Association, which considers his shops a thorn in the side. At all hours there is the music. It starts at lunchtime and goes right through to breakfast. Music is the language of the quarter whose buildings date to the late 18th century. The section is far older but lost most of its buildings in two major fires before the turn of the centruy. BOURBON STREET OFFERS country bars, nightclubs, notables such as A1 Hirt and unknown street musicians of all qualities and inclinations stationed one to a block, always with an instrument case open on the ground to catch dollar bills. Some of the most pleasant street music comes from a local trio called Allegra. Dressed in early 19th century petticoats and breeches, they alternately pick instruments from a collection that includes a lap harp, mandolin, banjo, fiddle, Jews harp and guitar and serenade the crowd with soft folk songs.
