Yep, I'm a bit behind. But yet I continue.
Once we were ready we checked out of our hotel and made our way back downtown. We swung through the 9th ward that had been damaged from Hurricane Katrina way back in 2005. There were still a lot of vacant lots and areas where nothing had been rebuilt.
We visited Lafayette Cemetery. It was beautiful with the magnolia trees and above ground graves and crypts.
A few mug shots.
Next stop on our journey back to Houston was a swamp tour at Lake Martin.
It was really cool. We jumped on a boat with about 15 of our new closest friends and motored around the lake. We saw lots of crocodiles, turtles, birds and spooky swampy areas.
We stopped for dinner in Lafayette at a creperie. No complaints from the girls on this meal.
No drive in Texas would be complete without a stop at Buc-ee's. This place was huge. More than 100 fuel pumps.
We finally arrived back in Houston after 11. Sleepyheads.
