www.mapquest.com is what we use for routing. It will also calculate your fuel costs. We average about $30 per night for RV parks.

In New Orleans, The National World War II Museum is awesome. There are 2 nice parks in that area. French Quarter and Lake Ponchatrain.
We use www.woodalls.com to locate a few campgrounds in the area we stop and use www.rvparkreviews to narrow it to the best bargain.
If you go back thru Mississipppi, we like River View RV Park in Vidalia Louisiana on the Mississippi River, across from Natchez MS.
