San Antonio to Florida

[LebongJames 1815]

I’m having to drive from SA to Central Florida. I am by myself and have a couple days to do it.

Where are you stopping to eat? Where would you stay the night? Anything you would stop and see?

Be mindful of lake Charles and Baton Rouge, tIme it right or sit in a parking lot

You stop to eat in New Orleans.  You’re welcome.

I know thats the obvious choice but it will be Mardi Gras. Have been multiple times and really don’t want to get into that

This time of year hell no. Get you some stuff around Baton Rouge.

The shed bbq in ocean springs  MS is pretty damn good.  I made that same drive with family 4 years ago. We were able to make it to Crestview FL in one day. Stayed at the Home town in just off I-10. Also steamboat Bill's in lake Charles is legit.

Same thing with I-10 construction status.  I-10 is largely a bridge for long stretches.  A little bit of road repair can screw things up for hours.  Do one of the Gulfport casinos for an overnight party/stay.

Bypass NOLA.  Switch over to 12.  Find something in Hammond.

Pensecola NAS has a badass naval aviation museum-if it's open to the public again.  Since Covid hit, they limited access to military and visitors visiting military at the base, but it might be open again.  Highly recommend.

I’d hit the 210 loop in Lake Charles and stop at Darrell’s for a Darrell’s Special and a cold beer.

1701 BBQ in Beaumont is great.
