Lagniappe 5... students express themselves (1-- Dominique)

It's a little out of focus...Lagniappe in a shopping mall

If you are a lover of nature, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       you will see 400-year-old oak trees at the Oak Alley Plantation and in the swamps of the bayous.

If you are interested in the life of the slaves, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       you will discover the sugar cane plantations.

If you are foolhardy, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       you will see and nearly touch aligators which are very greedy : they like eating marshmallows !

If you are musical, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       In New Orleans you'll see and listen to jazz musicians everywhere, in the streets, in the bars and restaurants, in the theater.

If you are a lover of architecture, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       In New Orleans you'll admire old French and Spanish houses with their balconies.

If you are greedy, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       You will eat very, very spicy food ! ! !

If you are inquisitive and want to know and understand the truth about Katrina, GO TO LOUISIANA :

       Visit the museum. You'll be very affected and moved.

If you are depressed, GO TO LOUISIANA :

Meet our "cousins", the Cajuns : they will say to you :  "Lâche pas la patate !" and you will feel better.  For sure.
