For the adventurous summer traveler, Louisiana has no shortage of opportunities to get on and sometimes, in the water! Across the state, many of Louisiana’s state parks feature a body of water, all with plenty of activities. Whether it’s for a leisurely paddle activity or a beautiful hike in nature, Bayou Segnette State Park in the New Orleans area or Lake Bistineau State Park near Shreveport, are some of the favorite places to combine discovery and relaxation. Another option to cool off would be to visit one of the state’s many fascinating museums such as Biedenharn Museum and Gardens in Monroe, the first bottling site of the Coca-Cola drink, the fabulous collections of the National WWII Museum in New Orleans, or Darrow’s Great River Road Museum, to explore what life along the lower Mississippi River was once like. But Summer in Louisiana would not be Summer without sno-balls, one of the most popular summer treats that were invented in New Orleans. These shaved ice treats can be served plain, drizzled with condensed milk, or topped with sweet toppings like cheesecake and cookies. Debbie’s Snowballs in West-Monroe, SnoMan Snoballs in Baton Rouge, or Hansen’s Sno Bliz in New Orleans are absolute must-stops for ice cream lovers.
