New Orleans...remember it's Naw'lins...Ponchartrain Landing RV Resort. Free Shuttle takes you to the French Quarter. Visit the open air market. Take the bus tour, skip the paddle wheel tour.
Texas...from Naw'lins, stay along the Gulf Coast of Texas. Take the free ferry, (2 1/2 miles) into Galveston. Have your camera ready for the dolphins. Take the driving tour downtown to see the tree carvings. Stay at the Sandpiper, (only if you can get inside) or Jamaica Beach RV Resort. Continue west to Corpus Christi then north to San Antonio. Places to stay along the way Goose Island SP..camp on the gulf, Corpus Christi SP. Outside San Antonio stop in Kerrville at Buckhorn Lake RV Resort. Upscale resort, but be sure to go into town and walk along the river. Holiday Express in town has a swimming pool in the shape of the State of Texas.
Arizona...Lots to see in the Tombstone/Tucson area. Grand Canyon..Trailer Village at the South Rim is the only CG with full hookups. Recommended as the free shuttles pick you up at the park and will take you everywhere along the south rim. You won't need your car. Heading east you can follow the "Mother Road", Route 66. In Seligman, eat at the RoadKill Cafe, good eats. Stop in Winslow and "stand on the corner" of Eagles fame. See Meteor Crater. Stay at the KOA in Holbrook. Good base to see the TeePee Motel of CARS fame downtown, Petrified Forest and Painted Desert. Day trip to Four Corners and be in four states at the same time.
If you want photos etc. check out my blog below...lots of pics and info about that route.....PM if you have questions......Dennis
