Travel With Bender - Family Travel Blog: "Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken." - Albert Camus _ Life in the swamp. _ Dilapidated house on the edge of a tributary of Old Pearl River in eastern Louisiana, USA. _ I was captured by the character of this dated dwelling which survived the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. It felt like another world. _ Spotted this view along our swamp tour with @cajun_encounters_tours along with alligators, turtles and swimming wild pigs (yes, you read that correctly).
