Atchafalaya Basin Bridge


The Atchafalaya Basin Bridge is one of my favorite things we've seen in our travels so far. We've been over it twice, but I haven't posted about it until today.

The bridge is a mere 18.2 miles long, and as the name suggests, crosses over the Atchafalaya Basin. You can read more about the basin at the link, but it is the largest swamp/wetlands in the US and it's pretty awesome to drive across. Read more about the bridge here.

These 2 pictures are from the first time we crossed:




The next two are from the second crossing:

And this one has a weird color, and some bug splatters because I took it through the windshield.


It really is an amazing bridge! Not one I would recommend trying to hold your breath while crossing though...
