On the Road to Las Vegas Day 3

Well we woke up and headed out for day three on the road. We were quite happy to have safely navigated through Mobile avoiding the tunnel and making it all the way to Louisiana the day before. The storms had passed but there was still a lot of wind witch caused us to go pretty slow. But mostly I could see Freddie gaining confidence in driving this Beast. One driving video had suggested putting a mark on your windshield to mark the front end blind spot to help with knowing where your coach is on the road and that really helped. We had now traveled through 4 states and into Louisiana heading toward Texas.

Almost all of  I-10 through Louisiana is over water like this.

And now Texas.

The Texas rest area we stayed at on day 3! and yes we spent day day 4 traveling through Texas also

                 Negotiating Houston rush hour traffic was challenging. Freddie did a wonderful job.              No pictures of the insanity. Stopping at a Texas Walmart for the night we discovered that our fridge had quit working. Three bags of ice turned it into a 4 door ice chest. On the road the next day we went through El Paso. Realized just how close to the border that is when my phone picked up  Mexican cell service. Finally across Texas and into New Mexico after going through border patrol!

We are hoping to get the fridge fixed in Las Vegas.



Bye Bye Texas! only 3 states to go!
