It must have been the book 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil', or all the Hollywood movies, I feel the need to discover more of North America, the heart land. I have no baggage, I have no hang ups. I was born and raised in Italy. I am capable to accepting people of all personalities, as long as they are good people. I believe that in the world the majority of people are of a good nature, and those are the people I want to meet on this trip.
I love to make connections, whether we are soaking in the campground jacuzzi, or waiting in a museum line, or having a beer in a bar. I love a good story.

Day 52 - Biloxi to Pensacola: Bingo night and southern rock in downtown Pensacola


We woke up in the Davis Bayou campground after a good night's sleep. This is a very beautiful park with people taking walks and bicyclists cruising the trails. This would be a nice place to spend more time, but we have our reservation in Pensacola so heading out this morning.




We have a nice pull-through spot in the Perdido Key RV resort new Pensacola, very full so lucky to get the last spot! It is a park full of snow birds and some contract workers (based on the work pickups we see in the overflow area). Clean and organized RV campground. Once settled (around 7:00 pm) we head to downtown Pensacola to check it out!

This historical downtown is not that big, so after a walk we see most of it. We considered seeing a concert of one of Bob Marley's sons, Stephen, but then opted to go to the Seville Quarter, a big building with 7 themed rooms and music all evening. We watched a fun band from a distance, but unfortunately all the tables were taken so after a while noticed that another room was having a bingo night. This is the first time we've played bar bingo and it was really fun! Lots of crowd comments and after a winner gets a prize everyone throws their crumpled up bingo sheets at her. As we enjoyed the games at a certain point Francesca won! She won some bar bucks and we bought a serving of fries to go with our beer :) Later the tables thinned out a bit and we watched the end of the concert, including a few final jam sessions with other musicians from the crowd. A fun evening!
