Back to Margaritaville!
My hubby had pictures on his phone that he sent to me after I did the first posting.

After lunch at the Boomtown buffet we stopped at the "Old Brick House".
It is one of the oldest structures in Biloxi. It was built around 1835 & overlooks the picturesque Back Bay. The house was constructed of brick made on the Back Bay.

Our Monday morning walk was full of reminders of the Hurricanes that have ravaged Biloxi.

Hubby had to head back home at noon on Monday for work the next day.
My sisters, brothers, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law rode the Casino Hopper down to the Hard Rock Casino.
We provided quite an afternoon of entertainment for the driver & the rest of the passengers.
We discovered the Casino Hopper is NOT complimentary!
It cost $1.50 per person per ride AND you must have correct change.
Or you could get a one day pass or a three day pass at the bus station.
We had to use our math skills to calculate $1.50 times 7 and then come up with exactly $10.50 change among us. Now remember we're all high rollers at the casinos, so coming up with chump change was not easy.
All this to wander around some quaint galleries & shops in old downtown Billoxi!
After shopping we passed Mary Mahoney's Restaurant. A couple exiting the garden area told us there was a 2000 year old tree in the gardens.
Here is the Patriarch!
Mahoney's was established in 1964 & is centered on one of the oldest homes in America, The Old French house, circa 1730.
Of course no vacation is complete without the famous "foot" picture!
Love all of the history in that area! I could wander for days, I think.
