Adventure In The Swamp!
Good Morning Travelers! Time to have breakfast and pack up - we're arriving in New Orleans this morning and meeting the Swamp Runner transport that will take us deep into the bayou to the Swamp Lodge where we'll spend the night.........
After you have your fill, please return to your cabin, get your luggage, and meet on deck where your hosts, Captain Raz, Gracie, and Sammy will make sure you get safely off the boat and down to the bus that awaits to take us to the Swamp.
On our way to the swamp!
Our first adventure is a ride in the swamp.....all aboard.... Captains Raz and Sammy are your tour guides and Gracie will help you board the swamp runner.
Keep your tails and toes on the boat or you'll be this guy's lunch.
Please don't crowd one side of the boat..
.these two look like they're fighting over us!

Here we are at the Swamp Lodge.........make sure you get your luggage off the bus. The Lodge looks small, but just wait until you see inside!
Gracie
Be sure to stop down in the lodge lobby to pick up your sack lunch. Everyone should have one, be sure to take it with you when you leave.
Raz, Gracie, & Sammy
We have air boats down at the edge of the swamp if you would like one. Keep an eye out for all of the wonderful critters that live in the swamp.
Sammy, Gracie, & Raz
Grab a canoe and go for a ride around the swamp to see the wildlife - if you feel eyes watching you, it's probably the creatures that live in the swamp.....making sure you keep your distance! Be careful out there.......
Dinner by the campfire....served by Raz
When you're finished with dinner come back up to the Lodge.............
We're going to watch a move in the Lodge Movie Room - complete with popcorn.....a great way to wind down the trip before getting a good night's sleep. Breakfast in the Lodge tomorrow morning before we leave! Hopefully the movie selection won't be too scary for you to get your rest..........
Good Night Everybody!

Sammy and Raz share a Lodge Room |
Get comfy in your rooms.......we've reached the last day on the trip.....everybody catch some zzzzzs and dream about all our fun adventures that we shared sailing down the mighty Mississippi.
Before you know it - it's morning! Time to pack up and hike a short distance through the swamp to a clearing where transport awaits..........................
THANKS FOR COMING ALONG ON THE TRIP WITH US
