Day 24 Moss Point and Pearlington, Mississippi

We are on a plane and going to Mississippi. We got through security. Sung'manitu flirted with the one woman in Security. They had my purse on the conveyer belt and I kept an eye on it. A man tried to grab it and I tripped him and Jellyfish - HAPPY 25th WDC!! stepped in front of my purse and the security guard arrested him. I yelled "Book Him Danno!" Everyone laughed Witchy Woman StephBee and I high fived. Security told us we were good to go. AmyJo-home sweet home WakeUpAndLive couldn't stop laughing. Celebratin'Slipslidin'Senior said she felt like she was watching a police show. Horatio was the only thing missing.

We are on the plane and it was quiet. I needed quiet time. The plane landed in Mississippi. We got off okay and no excitement. We went to our hotel rooms and unpacked. These rooms are blue. I should be an interior decorator as much as I check out the color schemes. We are going on an airboat. We get on the airboat. We go to Gulf Coast Gator Ranch. Alligators everywhere. I feel like Captain Hook or the Crocodile Hunter. We have a guide who loves alligators. He shows us the baby alligators. I pet one on the nose. Close enough. Sung'manitu and Jellyfish - HAPPY 25th WDC!! Witchy Woman pet them. A big alligator has her head next to my foot. I told her I don't want your babies. She swims off. StephBee holds a baby alligator. WakeUpAndLive Celebratin'Slipslidin'Senior and I move to the other side of the airboat. AmyJo-home sweet home threw some food to the one alligator. I don't want to feed the alligators. I may end up being lunch.

We go to the Bay St. Louis it is dark and we are going into the swamps. We see shadows and fog. I see a floating figure of a man and alligator both and it gets spooky. A voice says: Don't enter. Something flies above us. Looks like a giant bird. Okay. Spooky. The clouds are dark. An alligator appears and disappears in a mist. The moon shines. An alligator star appears. The stars come out and things look normal. The moon is half now. A baby alligator crawls in my lap. Jellyfish - HAPPY 25th WDC!! says he likes you. The guide takes him. The baby is cute. We are going back to the hotel.

We are at the hotel. I am going to watch Twilight and Practical Magic. No alligator movies. I feel safer with vampires.
