KOC Campground New Iberia LA

Monday ,  November 15 Traveled only a few miles from Ville Platte to New Iberia.  I49 to Hwy 90.  Thought we were going to beat the truck and camper to death.  Concrete roads were so bad trying to get here. We almost gave up but we made it :). Met some folks( here working in the underground mines)  seems most work somewhere some newer units and lots of older ones and llots of folks live here for extended periods.  Daily rate $25  Monthly Rate $400.  Lots of difference. Nice park, Internet, Cable, Laundry, Pool, Pond convenient to some touristy things. The couple that run it are really nice.  Visited the Rice Mill today.  Nicest lady ( her daughter lives in Charlotte) worked there helped us find place to eat and another attraction.  Went to Walmart for supplies. Meat on top salad for supper. Last of the ice cream.  Rain again tonight.  Beautiful sunshiny day 80'
Tuesday November 16 a little cooler at 70'  took care of the laundry and a big omelet breakfast then off for a little tourist action. Visited Avery Island, Tabasco factory tour trying out the different products, sauces, boudin sausages, crawfish corn and rice dish and Jungle Gardens, pretty cool Gardens was a truck ride through which made it easier on Danny.  Then back to campgrounds for jackets and pills for Danny on to town to the Farmers Market (wrong time of the year :)  More walking gardens and a house tour followed at Rip Van Winkle Plantation. The tale of days gone by was amazing. Drilling caused a giant hole that sucked in seveal acres of land, home, buildings. This home was built by an excellent actor Joseph Jefferson back in the 1800's
Met a couple of interesting people today. A man at the laundry who is spending a month in each state traveling in a pickup with a 5th wheel by himself told us of a nice state park near New Orleans. He is a retired school superintendent.  A couple at the Jefferson gardens from Lake Charles LA gave us advice on campgrounds to stay at. Made pita pizza for supper, Danny is so hungry for Jeff's pizza.   Tomorrow we leave for next campsite.
