"Houston, the Kraemers have landed"

Yep, today we made it to our destination state, and have landed tonight just south of Houston at an RV Park.  We plan to stay here a couple of days, then head on to our final destination.

It was a fairly long driving day again today, coming all the way from New Orleans.  But we arrived just before 4 pm.

We crossed lots of swamp land in Louisiana, and even in eastern Texas.  It must have cost the government billions of dollars to build Interstate-10.  I swear, it's almost all bridges throughout the whole state of Louisiana.

This is the bridge over the Mississippi River.



And the river, of course.



There was one bridge we drove over (I didn't get a photo as I didn't have camera in hand);  the river was called the Old and Lost River.  Doesn't that say it all?!?!?

Fortunately today is Sunday.  Getting through Houston is crazy at the best of times, and today was one of those times, I think.

We drove by Minute Maid Park - home of the Houston Astros.  It's in our sights for some trip down the road.



So we'll check out Houston tomorrow.  Gerard wants to go to the NASA Johnson Space Center (re).  We haven't anything planned, so we'll see.
