Dixie Part Two

Nashville, Canyons, Tropical Beaches, and New Orleans

Day Eleven:

Nashville:

Some sights from our walk around Nashville.

Taco Bell Cantina:

Since we all had worked at a Taco Bell for roughly a year to raise the money for this trip. We figured it was fitting to stop in at a Taco Bell Cantina for lunch. This Taco Bell had live music every night and a bar with alcoholic beverages being served all day.

Tennessee State Capitol:

A stroll around the beautiful Tennessee State Capitol featuring many monuments and statues to former presidents.

Drive through Alabama:

Our drive through Alabama featured thunderstorms, multiple trees down in the road and some of the fastest wind we’ve ever seen. Cool weather to experience, not so cool to drive through or sleep in.

Day Twelve:

Providence Canyon, Georgia:

A beautiful canyon in Georgia that is currently being formed. With amazing orange, red and white colors with trees growing all around it, Providence Canyon is a truly unique place!

Day Thirteen:

On this day, I was back in New England for a day to take care of a family matter. But the group (still in Georgia) decided to go to a lake and take pictures of a frog and a hot dog.

This was also the first night that we had slept in a hotel, as we drove to the wrong part of Georgia and wound up 4 hours away from our campsite when we noticed. But mistakes happen on large road trips like this, it turned out okay in the end.

Day Fourteen:

Panama City Beach:

Panama City Beach was a beautiful white sand beach with the warmest water I’ve ever felt in my life. A great place for a swim!

Campsite at Holmes Creek, FL:

The almost alien views of the Florida swamp created some beautiful pictures at sundown.

Day Fifteen:

New Orleans:

Trying out some of the local cuisine and seeing some of the most famous monuments and buildings in New Orleans.

Louisiana State Capitol (Baton Rouge):

The Louisiana State Capitol is a one of a kind place. One of the only two state capitols in America that are built as skyscrapers. The statue featured in front of the capitol building is a statue of the man known as Huey Long or the “Kingfish.” Long was an interesting historical figure, and is still to this day a political icon in Louisiana.

Campsite at Holly Beach, LA:

It was just incredible to be able to camp next to the ocean, although it did make for a windy and sandy night. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read our little updates, and please subscribe with your email for updates. It’s free, and it helps us out more than you could imagine.
