Highlights:
- Valentine’s Day in Alabama! *
- Birmingham Civil Rights Institute
- Can now say I woke up in Birmingham, AL one morning, ran a marathon, drove to Marietta, GA, had a nice dinner, drove 11 hours through the night to Miami, went on a cruise (see: airport closure, chance of snow)
Low-lights:
- Airport shut down due to possible chance of there perhaps being a dusting of snow, maybe
- Completing marathon in Birmingham at noon, needing to be in Miami by 6 am (see above)
- Three Amigos Restaurant and Cantina in Cozumel had a few pinatas, not what I would call a plethora of pinatas
* Note: Valentine’s Day in Alabama package includes complementary four day round-trip cruise from Miami, FL to Key West, FL and Cozumel, Mexico. You know, so that you can stay married.
Thanks:
- John and Peg for watching Eli.
