Drive to Louisiana

The drive to Louisiana was sooooo long. We saw lots of beautiful scenery and the highways were very easy to ride on. Tony is an excellent driver of large vehicles. He was very careful the whole time. We have not found anything that appears to be broken. This picture was taken at a rest stop where we streched our legs out and went to the bathroom.


Finally to Louisiana! The roads in Louisiana were not as smooth as Texas roads.

Baton Rouge is a couple hours away from New Orleans. The picture below is the Mississippi River that runs through Baton Rouge. Many people have said to me that Louisiana is smelly and nasty. When they say that, they are speaking of Baton Rouge. Baton Rouge smelled like dead rats. The river is disgusting. The whole town has a foul cloud that surrounds it. Outside the town, are all legitimate swamps. In New Orleans and Mandeville, I have only seen wooded areas and lakes, rivers, etc. However, in Baton Rouge there are legitimate swamps. Very glad that I don't live in Baton Rouge!!
