This post is another from our family trip to Louisiana over Christmas. We flew into New Orleans and stayed a few days to let our daughter explore some of the city. One of the biggest hits: the Audubon Zoo!

This is a throwback post to a hike that I did about 7 years ago, at a state park in my home state of Louisiana: Lake Fausse Pointe State Park.
This was another return visit to a favorite spot in my home state of Louisiana over this past Christmas break: Avery Island. I have been here many times before, but this was my first time to visit the newly revamped tour of the Tabasco Factory. Click "read more" to see photos from our trip over the Christmas break.
The Acadiana Park Nature Station (in my hometown of Lafayette, Louisiana) is a little gem. When we were visiting my folks over the holidays, we took my cranky daughter there. She wasn't in much mood for a hike, so our trip was a short one, but it was very beautiful. I look forward to going back with her when she is a little older!
Although I was not able to get any photos of the beautiful woods of Kisatchie National Forest around Kinkaid Lake on our recent trip home to the Gulf Coast, I was able to get some nice shots of the cypresses and pines in the small towns of Lecompte and Forest Hill, where my husband spent most of his childhood.

On our recent family vacation back to the Gulf Coast, we made a stop at the Zoological Park in Alexandria, LA. Now, Alexandria is not exactly a cosmopolitan city; however, its zoo is, indeed, world-class. It's really impressive and a lot of fun, especially if you go early in the morning to beat the heat and see the animals when they are most active.
The Kincaid Lake Recreation Complex is in the Evangeline Unit in the Calcasieu Ranger District of Kisatchie National Forest. We came here recently to celebrate the 4th of July with family as part of our Gulf Coast vacation. It was such a lovely place to visit, and I can't believe that I had never been before, even though I grew up in Louisiana.
My family and I took a trip back to the Gulf Coast for a two-week vacation. One of the stops we made along our way was to the Mississippi coast along the Gulf of Mexico in the little town of Pass Christian!
