In New Orleans

We got into New Orleans at the end of the afternoon yesterday and due to popular demand (Chris) we ate dinner at Mother's. Rather than stagger around tired, we decided that the best thing for us would be to take it really easy and recover from the ride. Yesterday's mileage was 382, and the roads in Louisiana are bumpy, so we were pretty "used up" from the ride.

The last 20 miles was on an elevated highway above the bayou country west of New Orleans. The speed limit is 70 down here, and I think it's more of a guideline than a law. Even the dump trucks were going 85. It's a good thing gas is cheaper here...
