Mississippi Cousins and Beach

The first half of the trip of full of places and things.  The final half is full of family and today was another great family day.  But first, we drove 466 miles to get to Gulf Port, MS.

We arrived the Biancamano's in the late afternoon.  They have a daughter that is Heather's friend, so we are staying with them.  We went to the Christine and Leo Labat home in Long Beach, MS for dinner.  Much of the local extend family join us for dinner - it was a great time.

Then we went to the beach.  The locals had been apologetic about their beach, but we thought it was great.  It had sand and water and gulls and a breeze and volleyball nets and a snowball shak - everything you need at a beach.  We enjoyed walking on the beach and collecting hermit crabs and playing volleyball.

It was a great day.
