Rosedown Plantation


This past Saturday we decided to get out and explore some more of Louisiana.

We headed to Saint Francisville, about 45 minutes north of us.

I looked up the weather forecast on Friday and it said it was going to be in the 80s and no rain on Saturday.

Guess I should have checked again because when we got to Saint Francisville it started raining and rained the rest of the day.

But we decided to brave it anyways and we went to Rosedown Plantation.

We walked though some of the grounds.

Beautiful big oak trees and tons of spanish moss.

We would have walked around more except the mosquitos were terrible!



 Alice LOVED carrying an umbrella and looked like a little model sporting her beloved "tutu dress".





Jane slept the whole time we were there.  She practically lives in the ring sling.




The plantation house.


The "driveway".



Hanging out on the front porch waiting for the tour to start.




The tour was very interesting and Alice did super well considering you can't touch anything.

The whole time we were on the tour though she kept asking to go outside with the umbrella.


After that we went to a little local coffee shop and then decided to go home.

It was a fun little adventure and we'll have to go back on a day with better weather, there are 5 more plantations in that area.
