== Hitching Hitchhiking out ==
=== West toward Baton-Rouge, Lafayette, Houston, Texas ===
Get the streetcar (tram) that goes on Canal Street (which runs from the Mississippi river and all the way to a cemetery). I costs $1.25 for one ride or $1.50 for transfer ticket if you get another bus before it. Take it until the last stop, called ''Cemeteries'' (far from the river and you'll see tombs everywhere).
From there, even though tempting to get to the I-10 straight, walk up to City Park Ave, turn right on it and then take a left on Canal Blvd. You'll see a small loop with 2 bus stops on it (don't walk too far, take the 1st loop). Here take another bus, the E1 route of the Jefferson Transit [http://www.jeffersontransit.org/schedules/E1Veterans-Map.htm]. It costs $1.50, for which you should have exact change because the driver does not provide change. The E1 route is often called the Veterans' bus since it goes far on Veterans' Blvd.
You need to get off before the I-10 on Veterans' Blvd. It's about a 15-25 minute ride. You'll be on a long boulevard for a while and you'll see at some point the highway. Just hop off before you pass under it or tell the driver you are a hitchhiker and need to hitchhike to Baton-Rouge and he'll tell you the spot. Look the map and you'll see where the I-10 and Veterans Blvd intersect. You need to stop just before it.
