Mobile

We stayed 3 nights at Mobile which gave us some time to explore this great little city on Mobile Bay.
The city museum was a fine way to learn about the culture and history of this area.
After a trolley ride through the city we enjoyed a great catfish lunch followed by a walk along the Azela trail through town to view the many fine old homes.
While in the museum we were privileged to meet a class of high school girls who are in competion with girls from across the state hoping to be chosen as one of 50 azalea girls.   Those 50 girls will travel throughout the world representing the city of Mobile.

 Today we left Mobile for an anchorage in Alabama just short of the Florida line.  We saw our first dolphins since leaving Florida last spring and are looking forward to enjoying the trip home. 
Tomorrow we stay at the Town of Destin Florida.
