Shreveport

I visited Russ, Rachel & Diana in Shreveport, Louisiana for a few days. I was lucky enough that Russ was able to be home during those days! We went to the Natchitoches Alligator Park. It was cool watching the alligators jump out of the water for a piece of raw chicken. And there were great photo ops---we got to get our picture holding a baby alligator. Diana's favorite part was riding the mechanical alligator and horse! Then we went to Oakland Plantation. The oak and pecan trees were so huge because they were so old! They were beautiful! It was interesting to learn about the life at plantations. Next we went to Fort St. Jean Baptiste. We got there just as they were closing but a worker went the extra mile and took us around the fort explaining the various information. And at night we'd stay up much too late chatting! I had a great time hanging with all of them!
