New Orleans is Plantation Country, and we were able to tour 2 of them while here.
"Laura: A Creole Plantation, was built in 1805. This 1.5 hour tour details 200 years of family history.
Part of this tour included the slave cabins, which consisted of 2 rooms - one family per room. Quite difficult for us to comprehend!!
The other mansion, "Oak Alley Plantation", was absolutely beautiful! It's surrounded by 300 year old oak trees.
The grounds of this mansion were immaculately kept. Really a day to remember!
We continue to enjoy beautiful weather and we're keeping our fingers crossed!
