Since I-10, I-12, the Causeway, and the Airline Highway were under water, just how *would* you get out?

Since I-12 is NORTH of the Lake it is NOT germane to this discussion. 1-10 WESTBOUND did survive it is how all the press made it in. It is a raise highway. BTW, Airline Highway also survived but Jefferson Parish was not letting people in on its streets too.

If I did not evacuate when the manditory evacuation order came through, I would have realized I better be prepared to hunker down for a while. That is what happens when you do not obey a manditory evacuation order. [BTW, I did not evacuate for this storm and knew that was a risk I was taking.]

I am looking right at a photo of New Orleans/Jefferson Parish border taken from a helicopter. The interstates were all covered with water. The overpasses are above water, but that's all.

Anyway, how would you get from downtown New Orleans to Jefferson Parish? If you didn't have a boat, I mean?
