Today is the first full day of vacation!!! We left the house last night @ 4:52 and only had to turn around & go back to the house once (I forgot the map!) Driving thru Dallas wasn't as bad as I had feared. Even though we were in the car once we got to Houston we could feel the humidity change in the air, started feeling sticky. That feeling only got worse as we headed into Louisiana. I had estimated that we would make it to Lake Charles by midnight & I was close, 11:50 we pulled up the hotel. I have concerns about today's time estimates though. Especially since everyone is still sleeping! Lulu keeps trying to wake them. Any noise & she's up barking.
Today we will be driving the Creole Nature Trail. The kids are loaded up with binoculars & I want to go take some pictures! So after we finish the loop we'll be heading to New Orleans. I've been instructed to stop at Mulates in Breaux Bridge for some amazing cajun food. I had wanted to be there by lunch but if these lazybones don't get out of bed we may just have to go to the one in the Warehouse District. I also wanted to drive down the Old River Road and take the kids on a plantation tour. I've been torn between Oak Alley and Laura but at this point I'm wondering if we'll have time today.
Ok, that's it... I've showered and dressed and blogged, I'm waking these lazy daisies NOW!!!
