Exploring Plantations in Louisiana :: Whitney & Oak Alley
After flying all night from Alaska to New Orleans we have finally arrived in Louisiana! We started our journey by visiting two VERY different Southern plantations.
We started our day at the Whitney Plantation, which is the only plantation in Louisiana that is wholly dedicated to telling the stories of those who had been enslaved. To say it was powerful and moving would be an understatement. It’s the kind of place you wish everyone could visit.
After we left Whitney, we went to Oak Alley. This was a very different experience that was much more focused on the stories of the plantations owners throughout the history of Oak Alley. While I didn’t go into the depth of slavery that Whitney did, it didn’t gloss over it either.
We’re so glad we visited both of these plantations, and we’re glad we visited them in the order we did.
After a delicious lunch we hit the road before ending our day in Lake Charles, Louisiana!
