Biloxi Bucket List

A few weeks ago, Will and I realized that our time in the south is starting to dwindle.  We decided to come up with a bucket list so as to make sure we do everything we want to while here.
  • Ride the carousel at the mall (E has been eying it since we got here.)
  • Visit the alligator farm
  • Eat at the Half Shell Oyster House and The Shed again
  • Go to the blue water beaches, eg. Alabama, Florida
  • Have family pictures taken at the beach (easier said than done now that the beaches are filthy a la Isaac)
  • Go to the temple
  • Watch "The Frog Princess" (We saw this when it came out and didn't particularly like it, but thought it would be fun to give it another chance now that we have experience in the south.) **UPDATE: We loved it!
  • Visit Fairhope, Alabama (recommended to me by my old boss)
  • Go to Mugshots monthly (August, September, October, November) (For those who don't know, Mugshots is a burger restaurant that has been awarded Best Burger in Mississippi for 5 years in a row.  The award speaks truth.  We have yet to find a better burger anywhere.  We'll greatly miss Mugshots.)
  • Do the local driving tours of downtown Biloxi
  • Buy a Dusti Bonge print (Dusti was a local abstract artist whose art I have fallen in love with.)
  • Survive a hurricane.
This list may still be amended, but I think we have most everything listed that we want to do.  We have three months left and we know it will fly by as quickly as the first eight have.
