Warner loves Tobasco so it was only right that we went to see where it all began. The parking lot smells like Tobasco! It is a very cute place. The tour lets you see how it is bottled and shipped, but the gift shop is way way way overpriced. Enjoy the tour and then go to Walmart and buy the Tobasco.
We also went to Breaux Bridge and got a small taste of what the Mardi Gras is going to be like in a couple of days. Everything is decorated and ready to go. Warner and I aren't much for crowds so the Mardi Gras just doesn't sound all that great. We did enjoy all of the decorations and the food is just great. We went to Cafe Jeaniette's and I had some really good shrimp.
St Martinville is the place where it is said Longfellow got his idea for the poem Evangeline.
A man named Judge Simons was Longfellow's roommate at college and he told Longfellow about the story from his hometown. St. Martinville has a State park and a town park dedicated to the story.
