Saturday afternoon, we drove over to Lake Charles, LA ( ~ 1 hr drive) and met up with some cousins on his side of the family. This is a picture of the I-10 Bridge that crosses over Lake Charles and is by North Beach, the only white sand inland beach between Texas and Florida. It was a beautiful day out, so we took a stroll down the beach (sounds corny, doesn't it?) and went to get a close up of the bridge.
Along the entire railing of the bridge are pistols from 1962. It was pretty neat to see - just something different.
We went to check out a couple of the hotels and casinos in the area and lost all our money. I never win when Jason is with me. I'm being totally serious. I won $200 on slots at Casino Aztar when I went with my dad right before my first trip to India.....and I won maybe another $50 or so with a bunch of friends a few years ago. I don't gamble much..so that's a big deal. We also had dinner with some cousins on Jason's side of the family. It was really nice to catch up with them! I'm thinking about planning another trip over for a day this week. The beach was nice so I could always just change my routine and instead of sitting at the hotel pool.....sit on North Beach for a day. Doesn't sound so bad.
