So, now there again n few updates. Yesterday I visited Lafayette, mainly because of the Acadiens. Acadians are French-born Americans who had settled in Louisiana. Their 'paradise' was later by the British f ast completely destroyed, or forced under British rule, the spirit that was passed by the few survivors live free, but to this day. Many names, places, and not least the language bear witness to the past. Sun are still in this part of the country descriptions, menus and the like bilingual (English & French) written. I had my most important goal, despite recent disappointments, a village of old buildings, which were gathered from all corners Acadiens . It was very nice to look when
you look at the American not to inaccuracies se hr takes to heart. The houses were allesammt been well preserved from decay. Musty board He had been largely replaced by "Other waste wood or 'artificially aged" wood. On the negative side, only the sheet metal roofs, which would not shine through her work in authentic tinned. Some were painted in shades of brown, but that would be able to solve elegantly. H was ere 'quick, easy and durable' clearly brought to 'historically correct'. The tendency to do everything that is old as yours 'historical value' was, unfortunately through here and there. At least I can not imagine that in 1840, when some of the buildings were standing, Pepsi in glass bottles (I would bottle some in 1950 - dated 1960) been sold and consumed, as one wanted to make one of the houses seem to believe. After F
reilichtmuseum I drove into town to me to see those. These were a pleasant town, which all engage in no hurry about their business. The 'City' had little cafe ' s, bars and salons, as they were found almost everywhere in the world. After a kle inen stroll through the mall, I allowed myself a burger. Full-eaten and rotten I looked for a nice place to me the sun on your belly, leave. Thus fortified and refreshed, I drove back around 200-250km inland to Natchez, because I had advised the friendly sales of the souvenir of Acadierdorfes to miss this city nic ht. In Natchez is also a cozy little town, but with a very different charm. Here much
more lonely old villas and houses in the inner city than in Lafayette, which consists largely of houses but chains. In the visitor center, I got me a card in which the best route was drawn through the streets. The first bricks and mortar in the list was ' Rosalie', the residence of a wealthy plantation owner. Home & garden had been well preserved or restored. remember the view from the terrace on the first floor rte me at home because of there was the Mississippi to see what goes on this arc. The Inn is by far not as powerful but to me the lush trees on the banks of the Mississippi River wa 
r, available to me at least, a certain similarity. The next house was the ' Stanton Hall ', in what are unfortunately no pictures shot were allowed. From the palatial premises was the owner of Frederick Stanton, an Irish immigrant who made his fortune in cotton, but had not much. About 9 months after completion of the property end of 1856 he died. The last bill of his site manager about something 
about $ 85,000, he himself could not pay more, and went on to the heirs. When the tour was over, I continued my march continued through the city, which brought me to the cliffs of the Mississippi. reached via a narrow single track road you down permanently moored to the bank at which an old paddle steamer and had served as a casino now. I had no idea that in Louisiana and Mississippi are so many casinos. They are found even on the interstates and highways nearby provincial town. Back at the car I was looking for my next destination the "Grand Village 'of the Natchez Indians from which something was out of town. Unfortunately, it was almost like the Fort Knox 2, because it was again just a lawn with tables. At least there were two ceremonies on the grounds of Indian Hill and a replica of one of your permanent dwellings. The replica was unfortunately just a bit run down, despite not being historically accurate materials such as Reinforced concrete. So I looked for my next destination on the map, the almost 3 hours away Shreveport, which "has received, despite its rapid change in its friendly atmosphere," according to guide. There were no pictures in the book, now I know why. After I had achieved in the Navi entered downtown, I stood in the parking lot of a gas station, which incidentally served as a post office and fireworks sold. In short, I am now writing from a motel about 2 hours before Dallas, Texas. 50m of this gas station gold pieces could be on the road, but for me they had lost the appeal. Therefore, I went to the time it takes to program a new Navi, back on. So far so good
