Natchez Mississippi<\/h3>\n
\n\t

 <\/p>\n

12th January 2019.<\/p>\n

Beautiful Natchez on the banks of the Mississippi, full of lovely old antebellum houses. We camped at an RV Park on the banks of the river, but on the Louisiana side. A beautiful spot where we could have our morning coffee and watch the mist rolling in.<\/p>\n

The Mississippi Delta is still surprisingly segregated, speaking to the locals the white kids are all in private schools or home schooled. We saw some of the private schools, big, old, stately buildings. The state school was over our side of the river, RV parks always seem to be in the poorer or industrial areas, it was not a very inspiring building but I was told that the state schools do get a lot more funding from the government.<\/p>\n

Mississippi being one of the more religious states in the USA, they had a travelling Pastor staying at the RV Park so I decided to go along to his and his wife\u2019s Sunday service. I couldn\u2019t persuade the others to join me which was probably a good thing because he was so intensely talking about righteousness that for sure someone would have caught someone else\u2019s eye and started giggling. It would not have gone down well.<\/p>\n

Sunday service done and dusted, we are now off to New Orleans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
