Alabama’s geological contours offer a wide variety of activities for both residents and travelers. From the northern part that connects to the Appalachian Mountains to the beautiful beaches along the Gulf of Mexico. If you are into hiking, camping, and other kinds of outdoor-related activities, Alabama national parks are the way to go. Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are some of the places where you can enjoy sandy beaches and taste delicious seafood served in the local restaurants. There are lakes all over the state where you can just kick back, have a cook-out picnic, or take that boat for a ride.

Historically, Alabama is the center of the Civil Rights movement. Visit the Birmingham Civil Rights Museum or the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham and the Rosa Parks Museum in Montgomery to learn more about the movement and the moments captured in history.

If you are an art lover, visit Birmingham Museum of Arts. The Birmingham Art Walk is held annually. The whole block downtown is set up for an evening of art shows, galleries, and performances where local artists showcase their masterpieces. Historic districts in the major cities: Birmingham, Montgomery, and Mobile and neighboring towns (Tuscaloosa, Huntsville, Florence) display beautiful antebellum mansions and interesting landscapes.

Last but not least, give your curiosity a chance and get a bite of Southern food in Alabama. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. Enjoy it with good beer, good friends, and music.

Well obviously the air force knows what's best for us!  They decided that my husband and I did not need a week in Utila indulging in beautiful crystal clear water, seeing gorgeous coral reef, and drinking exotic beverages on the beach!  Instead they decided that my husband needed to go to Montgomery, Alabama for a five week TDY (temporary duty station).  Starting from April 14 thru May 16, yep our week in Utila was supposed to be from May 10-17 well working on our tan line...

I went to this annual Kentuck Art Festival in Northport, AL. Local as well as inter/national artists were showcasing their masterpieces. The festival took place in Kentuck Park, about a mile down Old Downtown Northport. I enjoyed looking at beautiful paintings, crafts, pottery, and photographs. I especially loved the installation arts.I think the best way to savor the great art is to enjoy the pictures from the festival, and let the art speak for itself. Enjoy! :)

We are ending the day today in Monroeville, Alabama, where we will see the Old Monroe County Courthouse in the morning. It is the courthouse used in the book and movie "To Kill A Mockingbird". They even do a play, based on it each day. We are at another Best Western tonight. Dinner tonight was another real winner. Just around the corner from our hotel the desk clerk had suggested David’s Catfish House. We went in and got a table right away, but don't take that wrong. The place was crawlin...

Day 5 (continued in the list)Coffee Shops and BarsCoffee Shops- Capture Studio Café is my favorite coffee place in town. It is not located in the strip where everything else is, but the extra distance trades off with great hangout place, a much spacious area, a large TV monitor, live music, arts exhibit, and a very trendy restroom! Capture not only serves coffee and the standard muffins or cookies, it also serves lunch cold and toast sandwiches and salad.  - Crimson Café is a popular c...
