So we wanted to get from Brandon Mississippi to Corpus Christi so we had a full day to do things in Corpus Christi. Plus Tropical Storm Lee was moving in and we wanted to get out of his path! We decided to take the scenic route and drove the
Natchez Trace Parkway to it's end in Natchez, MS. ( we drove a chunk of this in TN and we really enjoyed it) Where we
crossed the Mississippi River into Vadalia, LA. We did see some very heavy downpours but no flooding. While driving we seen a sign for the Battleship Texas and San Jacinto Monument, we had been in the car for a long time and we could use some time out so off the highway we go. Turns out it is a ferry ride over, which was a nice surprise. Charlie loved climbing on the guns and exploring the ship. We arrived late in the evening and only had 45 minutes to spend on the ship but we enjoyed it. Once back in the car Charlie told us Maybe he was wrong about this vacation after all. He had been telling us he didn't want to go on vacation.
