Chauvin to Lake Charles. Feb 13

-
Another moving day. Time to say goodbye to Chauvin with a final hug with a friend.
There was one other gorilla in the area and one in Magnolia Beach. It seems it is or has been a thing.
A little bit of everything during our stay here some anoyance at bad  weather, some joy in our shrimp, the thrill of a swamp tour, delight of finally seeing alligators up close, compassion for those affected by Ida, and sadness for the death of Cecil the 86 year old owner of our campground.

We have arrived in Lake Charles and our campground at Sam Houston Jones State Park. Full hookup, showers, laundry and internet that works.
                    Life is good!

Our Crazy Train went to the centre of the universe! I had new glasses to pick up and Dave seemed to be impatient to leave. Finally he admitted he had a surprise for me. So off we went and I had no idea where we were going.  Low and behold we ended up at the giant golf ball on top of the mountain.  Yes the observatory. It has a working telescope and is one of two  Dominion Astrophisical Observitories. First opened in 1918.  And there were tours.   Model of the Telescope  The Actual Telescope

It's still 🔥🔥🔥. Went for a walk saw these. Walked to the pharmacy for this. Because this And this. Bought a day  late! Spent the rest of the day in  the shade. Day drinking and eating. I love all inclusive resorts. The bartender ran after me to return my sandals.  In the evening we went for our specialty dinner. We had  Shrimp Salad to start. A little short on shrimp but amazing presentation. Next soup. Dave had Pumpkin and  I had Lime. Simply named but both exquisite. Main. Dave had the Fish and I had the Chicken. Dave loved his said it was spicy. Mine unbelievable. Chicken breast stuffed with spinach with a slightly sweet sauce and pureed carrot. We chose the coffee mousse for dessert and they played Happy Birthday when they they served Dave's. They lite the candle at the table.                   🌞🌞🌞
