French. German. Indian and Spanish make up Cajun roots. The first Acadians refused to bow to the English crown. They had to give up everything they owned and leave. They were stuck on a ship and sailed down the eastern seaboard. Nobody wanted them. They finally made a home in Louisiana. Only because they were needed to colonize a new parcel of land that was hostile and swampy. Unlike other cultures that usually blend in with other groups. The other groups blended in with the Acadians. Adapting their cultures, beliefs and way of life. Cajuns are what make Louisiana unique. My dad worked on dredge boats for 12 years. I loved going to Bedico Creek and Morgan City. One day I want to participate in a Courir du Mardis Gras with my kids and take them to a Cochon du lait.
No worry. It was a low blow just to make you some trouble. pm me if you want to. I can make it happen.
