Tanya arrived yesterday just fine and we were so happy to have her here.
She is a fan of the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives from the Food Network so has lots of our meals planned out. Last night we went to Long Beach to a dive called Darwells, it was fantastic, we shared two meals so we could try things out. Crawfish Etouffee and Yum Yum Angelhair pasta, they were excellent, we went home so full.
Today we took her to Alabama, our first stop was Bayou le Batre at a little park where we saw some fish boats.
On down to Dauphin Island, this is the West end Beach.
There were lots of rigs out in the water, one gentleman told us they were Natural Gas rigs.
This is a narly old tree in Cadillac Park
Took a walk through the swamp down to the beach, saw a few turtles in the little lake.
Tanya got to put her feet in the Gulf.
Here is the little lake along our walk
Can never let a lighthouse go by
Lunch was at the Common Loon where we had Shrimp PoBoys, oh so good you never saw so many shrimp in one sandwich.
Dinner was at The Shed BBQ, I had a Pulled Pork Sandwich, for 5.99 it had 1/2 pound of meat, almost could not eat it all.
Off to New Orleans in the morning.
