roadtrip day 2

alright, i have decided to just make one mv for the whole trip. soooo day 2 update....

early start, around 7:30 i think....drove to Baton Rouge, took a picture of the capitol building, drove around town a little.

then off to evergreen plantation to try to make the 11:30 tour...made it there with 10 minutes to spare. except the place was closed for the day. lesson learned: check website or call before going. with the pouring rain...and i mean, buckets(!)...no cell signal, and an almost empty gas tank, i tried to find my way to new orleans (for a time with the help of a map....yes, you know, a real map, not the app) and to the nearest gas station.

lunch at about 1:30....tried the fried alligator, liked it, tasted like chicken;) and some pork dish, i can't remember and wasn't really impressed with.

walked around the french quarter and jackson square. tried beignets. went inside st louis cathedral.

drove to my hotel. through a rain storm. again.
ugh! i think i'm following this storm as it makes its way east.

snappy updates today....




Total miles driven: 357.4
Total time driving: approx 7 hours 


goodnight. from a hotel by the beach. in the gulf coast. :)
