A couple of years ago I asked about Lafayette area here and I was so glad that I had. It was a great trip. It was January and the sun was bright and days were in the 60ies. We went to see the Tabasco Museum (Avery Island) and that was cool and to New Iberia and toured a rice factory(Conrad Rice Mill). Also don't miss taking a swamp tour. They are so cool, even in dead of winter. Just north of Baton Rouge is Port Hudson which you might find interesting. (Be careful of the rice factory tour, we were so hungry to try gumbo after the tour that we had to go find a place. The place they sent us to had a sign that had washed out about 10 years ago, and we could just read ".....rant" and it had mix matched tables and chairs, served the gumbo out of styrofoam bowls and it was by far the best gumbo that I ever had.
