Cajun Village

Ok, so here I am, finally writing my post on my trip to my sister's. It was a really great trip.

Just me. The trip down was an uneventful drive. I rarely listen to the radio so I took the opportunity this trip. The theme song for this trip was Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars. It played on every station at least twice in each hour. I'll tell you a little secret---I really didn't mind. I quite like the song.

At one point I got totally freaked out. Why? As I was switching stations I heard Casey Kasem with the last five songs of the top forty countdown. Yea, from 1979 no less. Totally bizarre and totally awesome!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take any pictures along the way. You know, driving and all. The only pictures I got were when we were at The Cajun Village in Sorrento, La. It isn't too far from my sister's house in Praireville.

We first made a stop at The Coffee House for lunch. I had the Shrimp Bouree. Again, I did not get a picture of it. I know. I know. Slacker. It is like a gumbo( please if you can describe it better, please do) over a beinget. Divine!! We all did share several orders of beignets as well. That, I did get a picture of.

Again, divine!

We then walked around some of the shops. We really didn't shop too much because my sister had her eyes on Goodwill.

These are some of the buildings that are unused at the moment. It's just fabulous back there. Swampy and old and just fabulous.

And then there are these guys. I really don't know how long they have been there. Too cute for words. 

 

I'll next get into some of our Goodwill shopping. And I'll discuss another trip my sister and I have planned!
