May 2,2010 Crawdad Festival

Today we got up and went to Breau Bridge.They were having their Crawfish Festival and when we got there the parade was going on. There was this tractor in the parade that had crawdad pinchers attached,pretty cool.It was very hot and humid so we didn't stay that long.

The music was good but with no place to sit and it being hot we decided to leave. We should have brought chairs like everyone else. A lot of people like to dress for the occasion. Here's a couple of photos.

When we got back to Betty's we went down to the boat that just came in to get fresh shrimp.People were lined up with huge ice chests to get there shrimp.We stood in line over a hour to get ours.Some people were there getting 400 and 500 pounds.After we got ours Betty took us to get crawdads for dinner. We got back and we all had a crawdad dinner. They were fresh and oh so good with their Cajun spice.

That's it for today we'll see what tomorrow brings.
