| This boat was in a small canal on the bayou and looked like it didn't belong there. When we went on our swamp tour, our guide told us that this was one of the remaining boats from Hurricane Katrina that washed up. There were quite a few others just left out there. |
| Into the swamp with all of the Spanish moss hanging from the trees. |
| A house by the water that I thought was neat. |
