Around Mobile Bay

We had a short, interesting, windy ride today, 38 miles north to Mobile, through the city, then south a bit to Tillman’s Corner.  After several cloudy, foggy, humid days, we were greeted this morning with clear skies and low humidity.

We rode past the U.S. Academy of Sports, which has this great biking tribute.

We didn’t see any alligators, nor did we have any desire to jump in.

The USS Alabama, now part of the Battleship Memorial National Park.

Biking across the Africatown USA bridge into Mobile.  Most traffic uses a tunnel into downtown, so it was just us and trucks carrying hazardous materials on the bridge.

A well decorated old building in downtown Mobile.  We had hoped to go to the Mardi Gras Museum today, but it isn’t open on Sunday.

My sentiments exactly.

Are speed lumps to Alabama what bubblers are to Wisconsin?
