Venice, Louisiana

The next day we got up and drove south again, the picture of the water  is of Lake Pontchartrain, as we were driving the Pontchartrain Causeway bridge.The Bridge is 25 miles long and the longest bridge in the USA. 

We drove through New Orleans again and went south the farthest we could go on land to Venice, LA.  The homes down there were really hit by Hurricane Katrina, and all we heard about was New Orleans.......

 We stopped and talked to a man cleaning fish and he owned a charter and his group had already left to fly home to Texas.  They didn't want their catch for the day as they had caught 80 some the day before.  So he was cleaning them and going to give them to the church.  He handed me a baggie and said take 5 or 6 for your supper.  They were Spotted Brown Trout, and they tasted like Ling Cod.  They were so good.  Good thing we always carry an ice chest with us..... by the way Manuel doesn't drink Dr. Pepper in the day time anymore..... you won't believe this but he is drinking water..... WHAT???? yes water......... he only has soda after we get home for the evening.....
