Alabama Adventures

For Spring Break my family ventured down to the coast of Alabama to soak up the sun and enjoy some nice Southern Living. We booked a very early flight and arrived in Mobile at around 10 am. Being a Northern girl, Alabama always seemed like one of those random states in the middle of the country, but I was most definitely wrong! On our way to the beach, we stopped in Fairhope, an adorable little town with lots of great shops and delicious restaurants. I fell in love with this little Alabama town very quickly and would highly recommend stopping bye if you are ever in the area. Here are a few pictures from my afternoon outing!

This fountain is stunning and it looks out over the beach as well!

The landscaping was so nice, of course I had to stop and smell the roses :)

I love this colorful mural downtown, it is so eye-catching!

Coming from NYC I tried to dress so that I could transition my outfit to adjust to the heat, but I was dying in my jeans (a first since early September) and actually got a little bit of a sunburn on my shoulders. 


For lunch we went to a place called Panini Pete's and I got the fresh mozzarella and tomato Panini. The atmosphere was so beautiful and everyone was so friendly. I am so glad that we stopped in Fairhope and thanks to Dorothy from Prep In Your Step for the recommendations!
