Today Mom & I decided to do something a little different and drive (with Juliette, of course) to Cypremort Pointe State Park, which is about 45 miles south of Lafayette and I believe one of the few places you can drive by car right to the Gulf in Louisiana...or actually this was the Vermillion Bay, but the Bay isn't not that big and you can see the Gulf. It was a gorgeous day...pretty blue skies and white, fluffy clouds. It was really windy, but it helped keep us cooler since we were near the water. We stopped at Dairy Queen and bought her lunch to the "beach" to picnic. We had fun and Juliette, although she was a little timid at first, enjoyed walking along the beach in the water and collecting sea shells.
These are some homes on a canal that runs out of the Vermillion Bay.
The park has palm trees and picnic areas and also has cabins you can rent as well.
This was one of the large covered pavilions they have there.
Juliette collecting sea shells!
And putting them in the pockets of her dress!
