Cross Country Tour Part 3


This was by far the WORST day of the whole entire trip. We left Witchita Falls, TX(again early in the morning... Boston was sure to get us up and going early. This day we drove through the rest of Texas, Lousianna, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida. The travels were going really well until we hit Lousianna. Ok, so this is just my opinon on Lousianna.... sorry for anyone who lived there or is a fan. I think this place has got to be the airpit of the earth. You just get the worst feeling driving through this state. The land is completely marshy, foresty, and dirty. There is no room for any vegatation. I felt dirty driving through it. We stopped at a Long John Silvers by Shreveport to let Addy go potty, and I would not get out in Lousianna again. Although the bathroom itself was clean, I was worried about how dirty the people who had used that bathroom before were. There is just nothing but tons of large trees in muddy rivers alongside the road on the both sides. Just nasty. I HATED HATED HATED being in Louisanna. We did have to stop and change Boston, so we tried to find a Borders bookstore (thinking it would be clean and we had a better chance of clean people being there). It was better. We got in car and drove through New Orleans. We were not able to see a lot of the Hurricane devastation, but the areas we were previous in looked poor and you could definately see how horrible it would be for these poorly built areas and poorer people. Anyway on our way through New Orleans we looked down from the road to find about 30 police cars at a gas station below us. I have never seen so many police cars in my life. Needless to say, I would be ok to NEVER go back to Lousianna again:) From there we drove in the FOG for about 2 hours through the rest of Lousianna, Alabama, Mississippi, and then finally the tip of FLORIDA!!!!
