Aaaaoooo! from Lafayette (la-fee-ette) for bayou virgins. :-) I won't lie to you but I haven't been my usual joyful Kat since being in Lafayette. Being sensitive on ALL levels this bod had some trouble adjusting to the climate change. Delta heat is blazing, no question. Dry heat and 30c is really different from 38c and 92% humidity here in the swamp lands of Louisiana. I've been a little grumpy but a trip to Baton Rouge this mornin' really changed my mood. I mean, who's stoppin' me from taking some lunch in Baton Rouge...no one. Po'Boy Lloyd's treated me well and it was sittin' along side the Mighty Mississippi that really brought me here. To see the rails and the river together at the end of the journey was terrific! Waldron, Saskatchewan, Canada...hop the rails. Ride them tracks to join with the 'little muddy' in Lake Itasca, Minnesota, USA. Ride the river and rails through the Delta of Mississippi and have it all end together in Baton Rouge, Louisiana...a thrill beyond compare!!! Aaaaooooo!!!
And to top it off like whip cream on bread pudding the music of the Blind Boys of Alabama at Festival Internationale d'Louisianne here in Lafayette...killer day...and my pants weren't even backwards.
Tomorrow the extreme swamp adventure from McGee's Landing. Me, the gators, the egrets and the guy driving the air propelled boat deep in the swamp lands. Stay tuned...
Over and Out,
KD xoxo
