Today was a travel day as we left Texas behind.  We had one last look  as we had breakfast alongside the  Galveston breakwater.  There is nothing like an rv for finding the perfect site for breakfast.  This morning the weather wasn’t nearly as calm as yesterday but still warm. Cold cereal and fresh coffee never tasted so good. 

After breakfast we took Andie on a short walk along the seawall and sure enough a couple came up to us and said that they have two friends that live in Bend.  The couple was down from Houston.  It still amazes me how those Oregon plates are such a magnet. 

We took the ferry to the mainland and followed east to I-10.  Claudia took pics of the homes in the area.  Pretty amazing how they live in these low lying locations.  Not for me as it looks like another hurricane disaster waiting to happen.

We entered LA and stopped at the welcome center where we picked up brochures and maps of the area. Right on the border and south is Cajun country so we are in a perfect spot to begin our adventure.

We got the idea to stop at this rv park (Cajun Palms RV Resort) from a couple from Wisconsin that were traveling from east to west and had visited this area and liked it.  The place is huge and has over 200 sites a fishing pond, three pools and a hot tub.  Plus my obligatory 50 tv channels :)

We will probably need to stay in Walmarts all the way home as the cost of fuel keeps going up.  Today we paid the closest to $4 per gal as the price was $3.999.  I’m still holding out hope that fuel costs will go down but it doesn’t look too promising.  I know, I know I’m not going to get much sympathy from you’all.

There are a ton of things to do in the Cajun country so we’ll make a plan in the morning and see what  transpires.

Talk to you later.  Later tater.  Be loving you.
