Natchez is only a short jaunt up 61 from Baton Rouge and has “river boat” gambling as well. We drove to the boat and parked. It turned out to be an Isle of Capri run casino and had ample open black jack seating. Mel and I played at separate tables and I left with a tie. Actually I had been down much of the session and when I climbed back to even decided this was just a bad day and colored in. Mel won a little and began to recover for the team. We left, got back in the car and drove north to Vicksburg.
Our fourth and final stop for the day was the Amistar casino in Vicksburg. A stylized river boat set up similar to the Quad cities casinos. Although tiring from the frantic drive, stop, play, scenario for the day we decided to give it a try. We had also decided to tour the battlefield at Vicksburg on Wednesday so playing out the final session was easier than leaving it for the morning.
Once again the casino failed to provide any support for our trip. Mel and I winning less than the cost of gas to get there. We did find a better priced Super 8 for the night. It was a pleasant ride through the bayou country of Louisiana and Mississippi though.
