| Flat bottom boats designed for the wetland |
Our timing problem came again today. We were supposed to
visit the Oaklawn Manor, but it was temporarily closed (but it looks permanent).
We went on to the Wetlands
Acadian Culture Center. Run by the National Park Service, it just had a
small museum and several interesting videos. I had hoped to do a boat tour of
the wetlands, but none were scheduled for today. The video we watched focused
on the Cajun culture through modern times, especially the music and the unique
Cajon words, most borrowed from French.
We’re camping at St
Bernards State Park, about 12 miles southeast of New Orleans. We passed
ports and refineries to reach a forested countryside with signs: “Do not feed
the alligators". The campground is
beautiful with great campsites – what a find!
