Mississippi, Biloxi

After a Father's Day, Independence Day coming. It is very hot summer days. We've been working the whole week in the air-conditioned room. We need to breathe the fresh air of nature. Let the sun shine, let the sea wind, let us feel relax.

On Saturday at 9 am, the sun has risen very high when I wake up.  When I make breakfast, scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes and ground pork mixed into cakes, and milk on the table, my husband finished gymnastics.  Delicious cake let my husband eat a lot, which is the reason he cannot lose weight.

After breakfast, we drove to another town on the Gulf of Mexico --- Biloxi Ms. Along the way, a lot of vehicles going to the beach, the car is carrying surfboards, Life vest, nets, cooler, pool float. . . It seems the hot summer, many people like activity at the beach.

Sitting along the shores of Mississippi's Gulf Coast, the city of Biloxi has been a favorite vacation destination. The city is small, but famous. It is beautiful scenery, quiet environment. Main Street is lined with old oak trees, the formation of an umbrella. There are several large Casino attract a lot of tourists.

Mississippi is a few U.S. states allowed to operate one of the gambling industries. There are several famous Casinos in Biloxi; it can be compared with the Las Vegas casinos. There is a casino built in the Gulf of Mexico coastInto the casino, each row of slot machines is only a few people playing, mostly elderly. Rotating machines dull sound and money scattered tinker rattle sound together. Standing on top of the Casino building, look at the Gulf of Mexico, showing white boat parked at the dock. Ship shadow side to side as the blue waters. Distant blue sky and the sea together, I really like a beautiful picture.

This casino has a buffet restaurant, maybe we went too late, restaurant waiter wants to get off work, we had to hurry to eat. We went into a big, stretching from the sea a six-story building is the parking lot. Downstairs is a large number of boats berth.

We are out of the casino, along the road towards the beach, I saw the sea some abandoned house, some of the dumped dead trees in disorder, no one to take care of the way. It was five years ago, the consequences of Hurricane Katrina. Most people know that Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in 2005, resulting in a serious disaster. In fact, here's a more serious disaster.

A gulf endless, sunny sky, white fine sand, aggregates of seabirds ... is a marvelous spectacle of the screen. That is the sound of water lapping the shore, people's laughter, birds chirping and boat whistles intertwined, constitute a forceful symphony.
