Day 6 Delcambre, Louisianna

At the boat show in March there was a booth promoting the North Pier Marina. Today we left the beautiful anchorage and headed toward the quaint little town of Delcambre. It was a great day that included:

1) the first lock requiring us to attach a line (Leland Bowman Lock - picture from http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bowmanlock.jpg)

2) kids playing in our wake (our wake isn't very big so you know they were desperate)

3) a wonderful welcome basket from our new friends in Delcambre, including shrimp and sausage

4) a ride to Lowe's in a nearby town, dinner, and a driving tour of Delcambre and Jefferson Island where we raced a peacock (also on YouTube at:  http://youtu.be/LaXMlCAM1is)

All and all, a wonderful day!
