Leaving Al and Irene...New Orleans and Baton Rouge..

Gulfport MS to Henderson LA...We got up this am at the Quality Inn and met Al and Irene for a quick breakfast.  We loaded into our car and went and did a little sight seeing on the Gulfport and Biloxi coast.  Beautiful! We did see where Katrina had hit several areas, but some of the rebirth was beautiful! We left them at around 1000 and headed towards New Orleans, I wanted to see the French Quarter..we did..omg it is soooo busy with construction it was hard to even navigate the streets..kinda sad as it was beautiful!! I wouldn't have minded staying a few hours to visit, but with the crowds, work and traffic not feasible..the area around it is soo sad, just so devastated...and lowlife...ghetto.. glad to be out of it..

Decided to go see some of the plantations because of the lady at the visitor center.  Well that sucked...we drove the road which was ok..but there was no place to have lunch..we are spending the night in Henderson, LA...and hope to do a swamp tour tomorrow. Then we will head for Natchez MS and then back to Don's...Life is good!
