baton rouge: My family is going for a week because my mom has business and classes to take. But we wanted to have a vacation too. What family stuff is there to do ? within about a 20 mile radius ? Anything fun, like a lake? There's 2 teen girls, Is there a mall ? Anything water fun ? Since its burning hot down there? Is there any other ideas that would be fun, Please share !|||There's lots to do in Baton Rouge! Blue Bayou Water Park & Dixie Landin Amusement Park Mall of Louisiana, Perkins Rowe and Towne Center are great shopping spots!! Tour the tallest State Capital in the U.S.! Great cajun cuisine and seafood at many resturants (I recommend Parrain's, Mike Anderson's, Acme, Hollywood Casino Buffet!) Baton Rouge Zoo & Aquarium Downtown Baton Rouge Nightlife Bluebonnet Swamp The Levee of the Mississippi River And of course the regulars such as skating, bowling, movies, etc. Hope you enjoy Baton Rouge!
