Baby alligator! I am very excited in this photo. The alligator was incredibly soft and absolutely gorgeous to look at up close in such a way. It is like holding a dinosaur.
We recently returned from a spring vacation to New Orleans, with some road trip stops along the way. Here’s a special edition of the link tank!
- Airline
- Rental Car
- Hampton Inn in McComb, MS
- Cracker Barrel (For consistency on road trips, there is no equal.)
- Mississippi state capitol building in Jackson
- Appropriate snacks (When in Mississippi, you buy the Southern Sweet Heat chips)
- Little Rock
- Hot Springs, Arkansas
- Hampton Inn Hot Springs
- Taco Pronto in Hot Springs (This meal would have been so much better if they had not run out of beef.)
- Hot Springs National Park
- Fordyce Bathhouse
- Natchitoches, LA (AKA Chinquapin Parish)
- Steel Magnolias
- Magee’s Patio Cafe (Will approves of the famous meat pies)
- Hampton Inn Natchitoches
- Royal Sonesta Hotel (By far the best hotel on this trip, and a top 10 hotel experience)
- Po’boy
- Antoine’s (Do not order the Baked Alaska unless you have 3+ other people to share it with! It is gigantic.)
- Airboat Adventures (SO MUCH FUN, + gators!)
- Palace Cafe
- Court of Two Sisters (A classic for a reason.)
- Lucky Dogs
- Bourbon House (Try the Bourbon Root Beer Float, it is amazing.)
- Louisiana State Museum (Perfect for that rare cold day in New Orleans.)
- NOLA (I highly recommend the duck confit and fried egg pizza, it was incredible.)
