Spring Training Trip - Day 18

We got another early start today at 7:30 am.  Since Ft Sam Houston is close to downtown San Antonio, we had to navigate the city freeway system to get out of town.  We made it without any problems despite the locals displaying no mercy on quick necessary lane changes.  We were helped, I suspect, by today being a holiday.


The trip to Lafayette was uneventful.  The weather was partly cloudy, with only a slight crosswind from the south.  Houston was another interesting urban driving experience with an RV, but again, we made it through town without incident.


We arrived at the Bayou Wilderness RV Resort in Lafayette, LA about 3:30 pm.  We stayed here before on our trip to the New Orleans Jazz Fest last year.  It is a nice park a little north east of town.  After we arrived, we did laundry and finished by 7:00 pm.


Dinner was at Prejean's, a nearby Cajun restaurant where we had dinner the last time we were here.  Once again, the food was excellent.  The restaurant also has live Cajun music 7 days a week.


Tomorrow, the plan is to watch several Mardi Gras parades and attend a Mardi Gras Festival in town.. It sounds like a busy day and we will see where it goes.


The only pictures we have today are from dinner at Prejean's.  Note the attempt at an iPhone video.
