Alabama

I only drove through this state on my way to Chicago from Fort Lauderdale.

Don’t mention you would have sided with the Union…

This. Place. Is. Beautiful.

This is where I went to my first Taco Bell,Dairy Queen and Walmart.
sighhh

And where I saw my first drive-thu bank machine lol! I can’t believe how people drive EVERYWHERE here, even to the ice cream shop where they eat the ice cream in the car lol! But i guess that’s cos it will melt.hehe.

There is a class Japanese steakhouse in Montgomery where they make your food in front of u. Awesome!! Go to it, it starts with an S…?

People are extremely overly polite. Friendly but don’t expect to hang round for fun, everyone just goes home after whatever event you’re at!

Really hot(ie humid) here, but for some reason the sun wasn’t strong enough to give me a tan, let alone burn! disappointing! You need plenty of AC,water/mountain dew handy!

A tip: if you’re Irish go to Ruby Tuesdays in Montgomery and they might give u free salad like they did us!! :D

this place is beautiful and there is lots to do. try Alabama Adventure

Humid.. like pretty much all the south. That waterfall in the picture for the state on here looks pretty cool though.

My sister-in-law was about to be married, so we organized this camping getaway weekend at The Dismals (I believe that is a picture of the waterfall). It was great, seeing the glow worms, touring the canyon, watching spooky movies, and getting scared from a strange noise. Loved it!

The first thing I noticed as I flew into the Birmingham airport was all the trees.

I want to go to the Yancey Chapel in Sawyerville, AL, one of the projects built by Rural Studio students under Sambo Mockbee.
