On the River: We are southbound having left Baton Rouge during supper - crab-stuffed lobster tail, pilaf, asparagus, and crème brule’ on the menu.
The Big River is a very different ‘animal’ south of Baton Rouge. Ships travel faster, the river is both wider and deeper, and plenty of ocean-going ships sail up river as far as BR. They are a shock to see after a steady 'diet' of barges and push boats.
We disembark tomorrow a.m. around 8:30 and are bussed to the NOLA airport. Tonight we pack and look for reports of how the VP debate went.
