The Big M Casino cruise was a first for many of us. We boarded the boat around 10 AM and returned aroune 4:30 PM.
On the right, Lutz & Arminda Jesse and Rusty Ost look talk with boarding passengers.
On the left, we are sailing out to the Gulf and everyone wanted to get into the picture.
On the return trip, some of the ladies were resting in the shade.
The boat goes out twice a day afternoon and evening. Slots, video poker, blackjack and roulette. They have food and beverage for a modest price. It was a bit choppy waters when I went out and could feel the boat sway a bit. Bingo is played on the way out, and in, from international waters. Some of our members felt the boat sway a little more than others, and we had a couple of people, who shall remain nameless, who spent most of the trip trying to save their morning meal. See, Ali and Marsha, I told you I wouldn't mention names.
Some of our members arrived a little early and took advantage of the $5.95 buffet breakfast they served. After that was finished they served lunch from a menu on the middle (non-smoking) deck. The food was good and was moderately priced.
This was an unusual trip for our group, but one (almost all of us) enjoyed.
