Pensacola... the show was good, the hotel was horrible.<br><br>For the record, Pensacola does not count as Florida. The panhandle is not Florida. I know Florida. Pensacola is Alabama light. <br><br>I couldn't even find a Publix nearby!<br><br>On to New Orleans!!!!! <br><br>:)<br>

De camino hacia New Orleans, paramos a visitar dos Parques Nacionales, el Big Lagoon, uno de los mejores parques en la costa de los USA, y el Tarkiln Bayou Park, caracterizado por las raras especies de plantas como algunas carnivoras.<br><br> On the way to New Orleans, we stopped to visit two national parks, Big Lagoon, one of the best parks on the coast of the USA, and Tarkiln Bayou Park, featuring the rare species of plants and some carnivores.<br>

... since my inclination is to go faster than I should, so i pulled off and got a room. at 200pm local time. Today is my day off I guess. I will try again tomorrow. If its still bad weather i'm outta here and heading to SC. Oh, i gotta say after 700 odd miles with the cramp buster, i'm sold on that thing! It makes a huge difference! my hand still hurts but mostly from the previous days' ride.<br><br>see ya on the road tomorrow, hopefully.<br><br>RAH<br><br> <br> <br>

Today has been a blur! I got into Houston last night at I dont konw what time, but it had just gotten dark. It was about 650 miles from New Mexico to Pearland (Houston TX), a very cool ride through Hill Country. Grif will be happy to know that i was drops away from running out of gas...I got off the little backroads and hit I-10 just as the low fuel light came on. I figured there would be fuel right around the corner....uh huh... I ...

Leeroy experienced a road trip U.S.A style 6:30am straight to the coach with a stop at Pensacola beach nice white sands e.t.c. for lunch &amp; Avo...too bad there was a thunder storm warning so beach was closed for the afternoon so ended up a 8 hour straight drive.. the seas were angry that day my friends.

... come through and destroy these ones too. Why do we spend all this money to preserve the coast when it's most likely not going to last?<br><br>Then we drive over a bridge crossing an inlet and my skepticism is immediately replaced with wonderment.<br><br>What a piece of work this world is.<br><br>

... I was still pretty exhausted and didn't have my head in the game the way I should have. I am sure that I will learn to stay closer to my camera in future ventures so I don't lose the memories of what makes all this travel so great.<br>

(48)JUNE 5, 2009<br>WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STAY AT THE BEACH. THE KIDS CAME IN THE NEXT NIGHT AT THE SUGAR BEACH CONDO. WE GOT THERE FIRST BECAUSE WE WANTED TO STAY ANOTHER DAY. WE STAYED AT AMERICA'S BEST INNS AND SUITES. WE REALLY DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. WE WERE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. THE ROOM WAS REALLY NICE. HAD A GOOD STAY THAT NIGHT. THE WEATHER WAS JUST WONDERFUL ...

... the sea gulls with little bit. They did and called us telling us that there was lots of cranes there. Well, we was in Foley already and turned around. I am glad they called because I did get some good pictures there. Like I said this trip was just too short. Our little sweetheart grand-baby was the best, sweetest little one on this trip! Thank You Father for a wonderful time with the kids.<br>

... Gautier on Highway 90 heading east and after about 15 miles crossed the state line into Alabama (the scary state - have you watched Top Gear yet?) As we headed towards Mobile we thought we passed the infamous petrol station, but we think the petrol pumps were the wrong way round. <br><br>The funniest thing of the day was when we were stopped at a junction by a Sheriff's Deputy controlling the traffic. You know how they say timing in life is everything? Well if ...
