Day 270 (Wednesday 4/17/13)- Birmingham, AL

Before arriving in Birmingham we made several stops, the first for BBQ. Each southern state has it's own take and unfortunately for Isaiah Alabama's version, though tasty, just didn't bring the heat.

Next we toured the University of North Alabama campus and got to see their famous school lions. Leo and UNA are housed right next to the school's front gates and though not especially active in the warm sunshine they were cool to see.

Isaiah surprised me with a stop at Trowbridge's ice cream parlor. We feasted on several flavors of ice cream and tried a toasted banana and peanut butter sandwich. Though it wasn't quite the King's favorite snack it came close and seemed a healthier option than deep fried. The pimento sandwich was better.

Finally arriving in Birmingham we were about done for the day and opted to explore the next day instead.
