How much time do you have? Could get a lot of good riding in Eastern Oklahoma and/or Western Arkansas on the way down. Talimena Drive, Winding Stair Mts., Ouachita Mountains. What are your interests? More towards gambling, music, bars, or roads, mountains, wildlife and swamps?

Texas backroads used to be better than LA backroads. Shelbyville and San augustine were neat old towns.

Interstate and 167 thru LA are in good shape till Alexandria, don't know after that. Gibsland LA is where Bonnie and Clyde story ended. A little museum there somewhere. Not fabulous but interesting. Natchitoches is worth some time. History buff me loves that kind of stuff. If time, going down thru Morganza and New Roads in LA is great swamp and river country. Hwy 1 south of Baton Rouge was interesting or follow the river. The interstates thru here are long straight stretches of tree lined roads. 'Cept for crossing the Atchafalaya Basin, that's cool the first time.

Maybe Vicksburg and/or Natchez Miss. Great old towns, too.

Been so long since i was in NOLA. Leaving that alone.

Eat some good food while there. Lots of good places to eat. Surely you will make it to Jackson Square. While you are at the square, pop into the Catholic Church on the corner. It is beautiful.


You have to go to Café Du Monde for beignet's.
