Trip to San Antonio, New Orleans, and Across the Gulf Coast

If you are receiving this as a duplicate post I apologize.  I attempted to use a new mailer system and it appears to have failed, so this is my second attempt.  Fingers crossed it works!

We are departing shortly for a US-based trip for nearly 4 weeks.  This trip is centered around a significant birthday, our friend Myra’s 50th, which will be spent in New Orleans, a spot that she and her husband William have yet to visit.  They are bringing along a host of friends for the celebration and we are lucky enough to be joining them!

There are no longer any direct flights to New Orleans from SFO, so we decided to start with a city we have been wanting to visit for some time, San Antonio (Remember the Alamo!!), to break up the trip and allow for direct flights.

Following New Orleans we are renting a car and traveling east along the Gulf Coast, visiting my former boss in Mobile, Alabama, and completing our trip on Florida’s east coast.  Below is our travel map, which can be expanded by clicking in the upper right box.

 As always, thanks for reading, and we hope our blog will either inspire you to travel and/or help you with some of your future plans.

You didn’t mention whether you were driving from San Antonio to New Orleans, but that will be a very long drive! Texas is huge 🙂
