Crawfish Capital of the World

With dancin' in our recent memory, we longed for a good dance hall as we traveled across Louisiana.  Remembering our 2012 adventures in Eunice, LA, we hoped a visit to Breaux Bridge would fit the bill.

We weren't disappointed.  First stop was Whiskey River Landing, a dance hall where the Sunday evening dance was well under way.  We joined in, dancing to the music by Geno Delafose.

Afterward, we swung by Pat's restaurant for some crab chowder and crawfish étouffée.  We were, after all, in the Crawfish Capital of the World!

On the way back to our campsite, we crossed over Butte Larose Pontoon Bridge, a really unique, albeit somewhat decrepit, bridge.

 It was decorated for the holidays, and seemed magical to cross.

Here's what it looks like in daylight…it's a lift bridge, and we were lucky not to be pulling the Airstream, as it wouldn't have cleared the entrance.

The next morning, as we were leaving our campground, we noticed that we had parked under a tree full of mistletoe.  Merry Texas Honeymoon Ramble indeed!
