Spring Training 2023 - Day 12

 We got on the road from the RV park around 9:30 am and headed East on I-10 through Houston.  As usual, regardless of the time of day, traffic was heavy and extensive.  It doesn't help that Houston essentially starts about 30 miles West of city center and another 20 miles further East.  It went O.K. for us, just trying to stay out of the way of the trucks and fast movers.

We also transited two other fairly large cities enroute, Beaumont, TX and Lake Charles, LA.  Lots of road construction everywhere with narrow lanes with no shoulder in many spots.  Weather was cloudy almost all the way to our destination RV near Breaux Bridge, LA, the Cajun Palms RV Park.

The park is very large and is a regional destination park for families and large groups.  There are lots of things to do for everyone, and offer a variety of RV sites, cabins and tent sites.  There is also a Boudin and Cracklin  cook  off event here this weekend.  Boudin is a Cajun/French type of sausage with other ingredients and Cracklins are deep fried pig fat.  We passed on attending.

We will be relaxing here tomorrow, doing a few errands and eating out at a favorite Cajun restaurant in Lafayette.  Temperature is in the 80s, partly cloudy and a little humid. Temperatures are above averages for the area.
