Bayou - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (202 words)
Bayous are usually located in low-lying areas, for example in the Mississippi River delta region of the southern United States.
The first settlements of Acadians in southern Louisiana were near Bayou Lafourche and Bayou des Ecores which led to a close association of the bayou with Cajun culture.
Bayou Country is most closely associated with Cajun (Acadian French) and Creole (mixed French, African, and Indian) cultural groups native to the Gulf Coast region generally stretching from Houston, Texas to Mobile, Alabama with its center in New Orleans, Louisiana.
washingtonpost.com: Style Live: Travel (4341 words)
"Bayou" is a Choctaw Indian word meaning sluggish, slow-moving stream, and this one, Bayou Lafourche, is maybe 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep, situated about an hour and a half southwest of New Orleans.
People this far down the bayou don't dare keep family photographs or other irreplaceables in their homes, stashing them instead with relatives on higher ground, away from the next, inevitable, disastrous hurricane tide.
Traveling in the bayou country atop boat decks has changed all that for me. It's changed me. It's allowed me to be closer – in every imaginable way – to the Cajun people through whose world I've journeyed, and in the process, I've come to care deeply about them and their land.
