Don't talk to me until I've been on the Bayou

Everyone knows the saying "Don't talk to me until I've had my coffee" but coffee isn't anything compared to the bayou. Being on the water and watching all the walks of life is what God gave us for a pick me up. If you didn't guess already we visited the bayou this morning. Our mission? To go on an Alligator Swamp tour. It was successful! It was extremely enjoyable. The bayou alone could convince me to move here. I really love the city. It has nothing on the bayou though. They have houses or campsites right off the water! We saw a few alligators and learned a plethora of information. We learned about the types of trees, hunting, snakes, alligator attacks, and life on the bayou. It was breathtaking. Pictures will be featured below.

The rest of the day consisted of shopping in the French Market. I bought some awesome shirts, earrings, perfume oils, and 2 pairs of sunglasses (one of which isn't for me). My favorite shirt has the bp logo on it and says fubp. My earrings are fleur de lis and the guy orginally wanted $20 but I purchased them for $10. Oh and I got a new car charger for 8 dollars. It was a successful day.

For dinner we ate at our favorite restraunt, The Camellia Grill. The host remembered us from the previous years too. We were all able to sit together which has never happened. We'll be there again later this week.
