Gonzalez, LA to New Orleans. 81 miles
Another hotel breakfast and we got a good start at 8am. We knew we had to go at least 80 miles today and needed an early start.
It was about 8 miles south to get back on the bicycle route. We rode on some busy main roads again but with some wide shoulders. About half of our total mileage was on the Mississippi River Trail which the majority of the time is on the Mississippi levee. We had excellent weather, cloudy and 80s with hardly any wind.
Arriving in New Orleans by four we had some time to kill so we rode through the Audubon park. Then we stopped at a local bar for a beer before arriving at our place for the next day or two, a warmshowers host in the city.
