February 24

Today we toured the USS Alabama at Battleship Memorial Park. It was a self guided tour of pretty much the entire ship inside and out. We also went into the submarine USS Drum...a bit claustrophobic to say the least, and through the aircraft pavilion (didn't spend too much time there as we've toured many air museums). All in all a great way to spend 3+ hours. Informative, historical and a good workout climbing up and down all those ladders. https://www.ussalabama.com/
We watched a Mardi Gras parade in downtown Mobile where they tossed beads, moon pies, candy and toys off floats.😁 Apparently they have 40 parades beginning February 7th. I had no idea! Next we enjoyed an excellent lunch at the Ruby Slipper Cafe. https://www.therubyslippercafe.net/about/ We ended our tour of Mobile with a cruise down historic Dauphin Street and a visit to the Cathedral-Basilica of the Immaculate Conception.http://www.mobilecathedral.org/cms/
Tomorrow we travel to Port St. Joe for a three night stay at Old Salt RV Park.Läs mer
