After this we went to Houston to see a family member I have not seen in way to long.  It was a little over 300 miles.

We then rode to the coast of Texas and took a ferry ride and meandered the coast and eventually ended up in Baton Rouge had an amazing dinner and some drinks.  This was another 300 mile day

We then did the short ride I think it was 120 miles back to New Orleans were we spent 2 nights.  Did the graveyard and ghost tours.  Very cool city!!!  Great music food and people.

After those two days we took some back roads and stopped for the day in Destin Florida were we took advantage of a water park to cool off.  We then found a spot to cut between the expensive huge houses on the beach and walked the beach.  We found a rock jetty and climbed the rocks to the very end of it. We sat down to enjoy the stars and noticed it was not good night for star viewing.  Have no fear, within a couple seconds of saying it was a cloudy night.  A firework show started on the beach.  It was like our own private show.  Blessed!!!

We were going to do another 300 mile day and stop in Gainesville for our final night.  When we made the turn south on I75 it started raining and cooled it off around 15 degrees.  We both felt so good we decide to push it the approx. 150 additional miles to St Petersburg.   We found a great band and danced till closing time.    We woke up the next day and finished the ride home of 120 miles. 

​ What a great trip on an amazing bike.  Cant wait to do the next one but next time we are heading for the mountains and going to enjoy some twisty roads.
