Not a great deal to tell you about today and not many pictures as we mostly took videos.
After a lovely breakfast at the Concord Quarters B&B we loaded the car up and headed out on the road to Breaux Bridge.

Our first, and only stop was the Rosedown Historic house and Plantation in St Francisville.

In the mean time, have a few more photos.

After a good few hours spent at Rosewood we continued on our journey to Breaux Bridge and the Teche Bayou. The journey was an uneventful one along pretty freeways and through a few smaller town and we soon found ourselves arriving at out home for the next couple of nights, The Bayou Cabins.

Dinner this evening consisted of salad, pastries and beers on the veranda and an evening of chilling out and watching rubbish American TV 😀
