From New Orleans, we headed out to the coast; and spent a week out at Grand Isle. Being at the Gulf; most of the houses were built on stilts. The park was also very isolated, but nice to be at the ocean.
Next was Lake Fausse State Park.In the first site we had a dock behind us to sit out on the bayou! Very beautiful and nice big sites. This area is mostly Acadian - their roots are mostly traced back to New Brunswick. So the french/catholic influence is large. We were in this park over the Easter weekend; and on Good Friday; crawfish boils were happening all over the park.
We moved to a new site after the weekend; and met the people beside us. Pat took us out to his tree house in the basin. Coolest tree house I've ever seen. And they also made us a crawfish boil. Their daughters got a real kick out of having to teach us how to eat them. We had a great time; and this experience will always be remembered.
Take a look at the pictures.
