4/1/12

Sitting at the dock of the bay.

Well not for long.  We got up early and hit the road hoping to catch the 9:30 ferry, we arrived at 9:25 after 21 miles of riding.  As it turned out it did not matter because only one ferry was running and it wouldn't be back untill 10:00.  In the mean time we sat at the dock and got talking to a couple who were down from Ohio who are cyclist.  Eventually the ferry arrived and we were off.  While aboard I talked to David, who we are staying with tonight, because he said he might meet us and ride in with us, but he just had vision correction surgery and was not up to it yet.  I actually got hooked up with David through his gf Jessi who will be doing her first cross country tour this summer as well.
The highlight of the sights were some off shore oil rigs and nice water ways while going over some large bridges.
When we got into Biloxi, Ms, we relaxed for a bit and then headed out for dinner at the fillin station (had some raw oysters and met some other friends). 
In total we did 92 miles today and will be doing a short day up to de soto national forest tomorrow.
