Biloxi TR March 26 to 29
Wife and I just returned from a 4 day, three night trip in Biloxi. I felt good looking forward to this trip. My horoscope in Jackpot magazine said I will “come into money on the 26th”. WOW, that will be my first day in Biloxi!
Left Tampa on a 8:30AM Southwest flight to New Orleans on Thursday, March 26th. Landed at 9am (Central time). Skies were overcast and when we landed, the area just had 10 to 12″ of rain the day before. There were some serious flooding in the lower parrishes. Picked up my Toyota Avalon for $10 per day! Car was full power, leather and rode great. My car rental bill for the four days came to $76 with all the taxes and stuff.
Left NO at about 9:40 and traffic was moderate with some rain. There were many troopers in both LA & MS, normally do not see any. We have our three nights comped at the IP through their mailer. Arriving in Biloxi, we decided to go to the Hard Rock for lunch. My birthday is in March so one buffet was free. The buffet was OK, not as near good as the Beau and about par with the IP’s lunch.
Played for about 2 hours, nothing major. The HR was almost empty this Thursday afternoon.. It started to pick up when we left at 2:30 for their free Thursday slot tourament. My Corona was calling, so we decided to head to the IP. I do not drink at casinos which I am not staying, maybe 1, but that’s it. Arrive at the IP, easy check-in up to the 27 floor. The microfrige is now locked. I used it in Jan. to keep water and soda cold. They are going to fill it with various beverages. Read the rest of this entry »
