They have an audio-led tour, so you can stop and look at whatever interests you, then hop back in the car and continue the tour. <BR/><BR/>We'd usually walk around downtown, too - go to the Biedenharn Candy Company (the Coke museum), and there used to be lots of great places to eat dinner - anyone know if the Biscuit Company is still open? They had great gumbo. :)Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220650712443552210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068765716255200575.post-65497580028142985732007-11-09T13:50:00.000-06:002007-11-09T13:50:00.000-06:00I had a great-uncle that helped raise the Cario.

At least that's the best I can remember from the random stories my mom's told me.<BR/><BR/>As for what to do in Vicksurg, it depends on the age of the guests. They have a cool riverfront park now (wasn't there when I was growing up)and all kinds of historical stuff from the war. You can always stop by my brother's house and make fun of him, that's what I usually do. Their Christmas parade is Dec 1, I'll be trying to avoid it while at a wedding reception downtown!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16583345006222445551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068765716255200575.post-75896922984247685902007-11-09T13:21:00.000-06:002007-11-09T13:21:00.000-06:00I love that you can walk aboard the Cario these da...I love that you can walk aboard the Cario these days.

And, of course, there are the casinos. . .grammargirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05254607143173846932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068765716255200575.post-55182924896808774732007-11-09T10:44:00.000-06:002007-11-09T10:44:00.000-06:00Y'all need to tell me what is fun to do in Vicksbu...Y'all need to tell me what is fun to do in Vicksburg... I have friends coming in later this month for over a week. I have things to entertain them with in Jackson and New Orleans most of the time, and I wanna take them to Vicksburg but I've never been there and don't know what to do.<BR/><BR/>C'mon, wise MRBA.
