Best Road Trip Ever - Day 2

Last night, we made the long drive to Mobile, Alabama. We spent a long time going to hotels and searching online for a room, but we had a lot of trouble due to a fishing tournament and our lack of reservations (we didn't know how far we would want to drive). Our goal was to stay in Mobile so we could tour the USS Alabama before the day got too hot. We finally found a room that wasn't up to our normal style of accommodations, but it was clean, and I did sleep comfortably. We skipped the motel breakfast and went to Cracker Barrel, then we spent the morning touring the Alabama and the airplane and submarine museum on the same grounds.

After visiting the Alabama for the whole morning, we grabbed lunch and hit the road. A restroom stop at the Florida border was a nice break, and the astronaut uniform/statue was a perfect backdrop for our space-loving Ben.

We arrived at our rental cottage at Seacrest before dinnertime, settled in a bit, and went to Rosemary Beach village for dinner.
