Cajun lunch on the bayou

Well, I could be like Lewis & Clark & say that "nothing much happened today", but I suppose it did. We were up at 8:00, had a light breakie of cookies, a "moon-pie" & some fruit. Started packing up our stuff, stowing it away and bringing down the camper for our departure from the KOA. We both slept better last night..must be getting used to the noisy traffic. Down to I-12 & west bound toward Baton Rouge & pick up I-10 for Lafayette. About lunch-time, we arrive at the Breaux Bridge exit & off we go for Mulate's Cajun Restaurant! I had the grilled catfish with shrimp etouffee sauce..WOW! KK had the grilled shrimp & the potatoes were the best! Did I mention the gumbo? Out of sight! We won't have to eat for days, or until a DQ comes along. And some real good Zydeco (swamp rock) & Cajun music playing too. (Dancing every night.) Back on the road & catch I-49 north toward Shreveport. The LA roads are really bad, and toss you up & down, so you can't even sleep or read. A quick stop at the LA Visitors center, in the Alexandria area & some good coffee & maps. On to Shreves & a bypass around the area to pick up I-20 west-bound for Texas. We are looking for RV camps, but decide to press on to a motel for the night & watch the Olympics instead. But first a stop in Longview--HI Dick Simon--for gas, Wally & a DQ! On to the west a little while longer & a stop East Lindale, TX at a Days Inn. Not too far from Canton, but "First Monday" is next week, so we'll head on to Oklahoma tomorrow. A very late supper at Burger King..a short walk from our motel room, but I'm still full from lunch. See ya back on the cul-de-sac on Friday.
