It was a long drive today! After leaving Atlanta, we started on the road all the way to Memphis, Tennessee, going through the states of Alabama and Mississippi on the way. While on our way through Alabama, we went to the city of Birmingham, and a place called "Vulcan Park" where a huge statue of the Roman god of Fire and Forge, Vulcan looks over the city, due to the heavy mining that used to go on in and around Birmingham.
We didn't really have many stops after Vulcan, but there was a lot of beautiful forest and scenery during the drive, even though I ended up falling asleep for almost two hours in the car! (Those SUV seats are just too comfortable!) We have two nights in Memphis, and we will be seeing the sights tomorrow, starting with Gracelands, where Elvis Presley was born, looking forward to it!
