Re: Planning trip to San Antonio & New Orleans

You won't find much to "must see" on that route. The Space Center, some time in Cajun country, and some plantation visits toward the end are about what I would recommend. There won't be much beach on the direct path. If you drop down to the valley around Brownsville then Padre Island has great beaches. The Spring Break kids should be gone.

If you like birding then the area around Houston provides great spots. For simple nature the piney woods along the Louisiana border are good but the tourist stuff is still recovering from Rita.

My wife & I (no kids) are planning to spend a couple of weeks in early April driving between San Antonio and New Orleans. Can anyone tell me the "must see" things we shouldn't miss. Best beaches etc ?

Thanks
