After a night in New Orleans, we spent 2 nights/3 days down on the Louisiana Boot with some friends at thier house on Lake Cathrine. It was awesome, we went tubing on the bayou, crabbing, learned about shrimping and gator hunting.

Mom went tubing
about 50 feet from where we were looking for gators
Rubble from Katrina, they just build over it
We learned how to run the crabs, then we learned how to cook & eat them
It took me a while to get over the guilt of pushing the crabs back into the water
Sharon likes to play with her food
