Man it worth going there to see the UAA Kidd. have a wonderful ship museum and planes, which i missed one plane outside but got a shot of it oudside far away. lol could had been right under it. Anyway it was $8 per person for the museum and go on the USS Kidd. Need the history of the boat look it up on google. I always wanted to go on this boat sent it came to Baton Rouge but never got a change to go. I saw a glass breach too and grave yards and colums of a old house but the house is gone and the colums is still there. Saw a lot and still more to go see. oh saw some of LSU wonderful campas too.

Great shot! I was quite surprised to see the guns at first. I thought they might be getting ready to blast BP into the next world. LOL. Excellent photo with the POV, the guns, the bridge and the clouds. Superb.

Hey, I remember the USS Kidd, or at least the name. Great POV on this capture, looking out from behind the guns onto the cantilever bridge and the gulf, Jock. And, eight bucks isn't bad for admission. Would probably cost at least ten, or maybe fifteen bucks, out here.
