Wednesday November 17 found us on the road again. Wasn't looking forward to the trip since the roads in Louisana hadn't been very good to this point. Bounced all the way down I49 and Hwy 90 to the last campground. Well surprise surprise Hwy 90 going north is not so bad and I10 going east is pretty darn good. Very interesting trip 20 mile bridge in one point. Lots of elevated highways over swamp country. Wreck on I12 meant we stayed on I10 to the south and through New Orleans. Crossed Lake P that was so large it looked like the ocean. Several large bridges some arched for boat access over bays and inland water ways. First night at the campground was free for signing up for a players card also received 1/2 off buffet, free drinks, $5 play money and a deck of cards each. Of course we had to try our luck a little bit. Second night was $37.50 but worth it. Our site was right on the Gulf waters, white sands enjoyed walking with the dogs. Nice campgrounds and neighbors. small with security guard. Construction on the road and in the area because of Katrina. Still searching for tar balls from the BP oil spill.
Thursday November 18th we relaxed and the drove down the beach road the water was right next to the road but the road was still under contruction. Looks like most the homes had been destroyed by the Hurricane but were being rebuilt bigger and better than ever. Went back through Bay St Louis and explored Old Town then asked mailwomen where the Walmart was. In Waveland :) Found the Dollar Tree too for more supplies then back to the camper. Walked a little more and Danny visited with the neighbors across the way. Started packing up for the move tomorrow.
