Louisiana

I have been to Louisiana twice.

The first time was to specifically see New Orleans. It was a day trip and we saw the amin sights such as the Superdome, Boubon Street, the French Quarter, Lake Ponchartrain, etc.

The second time was a side trip on my way back from Texas in 2006.

I came into the state from Texas on I-10 and toured St. Charles. There is a nice memorial to the 9-11 tragedy on Lake Charles.

I stayed in Denham Springs outside Baton Rouge and toured LSU before heading on down to New Orleans.

I came down from Baton Rouge and got stuck in a freeway traffic jam (In this supposibly abandoned city). Traffic was heavy everywhere I went. I explored the area where you find Tulane University and crossed the Mississippi on US 90, drove around that side of the river a little ways and returned. I left the city heading north on I-55 to Mississippi.

Next time I go to Louisiana (2009) I will probably explore the area along I-20.
