My First Visit to Shreveport by keeweechic
I went over for the first time to Shreveport to spend Thanksgiving with family. It was a quick visit and we tried to cram a lot of mileage into only day that we had for me to do some sightseeing. The city itself wasn't so impressive (from what I quickly saw) but the riverboats were really a sight lined up on the Bossier side of the Red River. What I really enjoyed were the Lakes (Caddo and Cross). I had never been around swamp lakes and found the bald cypress trees stretching out of the water with their bare limbs and reflections in the stillness of the water, quite a sight to behold. Stretching back into the arms of the lake, there was a distinct eeriness as what sun there was merged into grey skies.Spending my first Thanksgiving with a family atmosphere. The weather turned ghastly on the day but there was enough fun and warmth inside that it didn't matter. So much great food too!! - boy the Americans can eat:-)).... oh yes, and discovering Sugar Daddy's (the candy)
