Louisiana aka: LA

I really enjoyed my trip to Louisiana and I would love to visit again. There was pretty much southern hospitality everywhere. The weather wasn’t that bad when I went there (August). Most of my time there was spent in Baton Rouge and only about a day in New Orleans. There’s much more I wanted to see in New Orleans though. It’s cheaper to fly in to New Orleans than BTR, which I later found out and saw that a lot of the terminals in the airport at New Orleans are still closed since after Hurricane Katrina.

I’ve lived here for 23 years. Been all over the place and love it all. Louisiana is extraordinary and full of life.

I’ll be driving through the entire northern portion of the state next week on my way from TX to FL to see the in-laws for the holidays. I’ve lived in both TX and FL, but have never made the drive between the two, so this’ll be interesting. :)

I remember flying over here a few weeks ago. This is where a large part of my family lives. I had viseted there as a child and loved being there again.

It was very green compared to Arizona!

Louisiana is a pretty groovy place – I’ve been there quite a few times but never have done the whole Mardi Gras thing, now that I think of it…Love the above-ground cemeteries and the fresh seafood.
