This is turning out to be a week of milestones! On Sunday, we reached the western most point of our trip when we left the Mississippi for the Atchafalaya River. Today, we have officially left the inland rivers we started back in Troy, NY, and are now back in tidal waters. We were 3 more days on the Mississippi, after Vicksburg, and 2 more days on the Atchafalaya River. There was nowhere to get off the boat during this 5 day stretch so, cabin fever setting in, we were thrilled to step off the boat in Morgan City. Still, we will miss the rivers and the extraordinary experiences we were lucky enough to have had.
