41 (D-21) Acadian Village / Lafayette

In the afternoon on this sixth day, we go to Lafayette where we'll first visit the private cultural park, Acadian Village, where a typical 1800s Cajun village was recreated during the 1970s.  Seven of the eleven buildings are authentic homes of the 19th century donated by the families whose ancestors once occupied them.  

Just a glimpse:




Come back tomorrow to learn more about Acadia, Le Grand Dérangement, Les Acadiens-->The Cajuns.

And do enjoy your Spring holidays!
