A Fun-Filled Trip to Austin, Texas

We spent three nights in Austin, Texas, celebrating Lincoln’s birthday on the drive from New Orleans. Activities included exploring McKinney Falls State Park, kayaking on Lady Bird Lake, watching the Congress Street Bridge bat show, a lively camping experience, brunch with friends, and learning Texas history.

New Orleans! The Big Easy

Tallahassee for fishing, Gulf Islands National Seashore for a wildlife learning adventure, and New Orleans for a mix of cultural experiences, including Café du Monde, the French Quarter, Bayou Segnette State Park, and various local attractions like jazz performances and historical sites, culminating in a rich, memorable journey.
