After a good night’s sleep we are both rested and ready to go. We crossed the Mississippi River at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and then left Interstate 10, going north on Highway 61.

Crossing the Mississippi River at Baton Rouge, Louisiana

This is the Great River Road, a National Scenic Byway along the Mississippi River, running 2,000 miles up to the river’s source in Minnesota. But that is a trip for another time. After about 60 miles or so we cross the border into Mississippi.

Mississippi State Line

We crossed the Mississippi River again and we’re back in Louisiana. We are staying at River View RV Park in Vidalia, Louisiana, for a few days while we visit Natchez, Mississippi, on the other side of the river so we will be going back and forth across this bridge while we are here.

Natchez-Vidalia Bridge

The RV park we are in tonight is along the river not far from the bridge. There is a walkway along the river’s edge. We walked it to the bridge and back. It was a beautiful day, 80 degrees and mostly sunny. We spent the rest of the day watching barges traverse up and down the river.
