SB Road Trip: Day 3

Monday was Day 3 of our Spring Break Trip. After breakfast and getting ready we all headed into Birmingham. Our first stop was the University of Alabama Birmingham to visit where Aunt Sharon works and meet her crew. She enjoyed showing off her great-nephews. Then we walked across the street past the minor league baseball field to Railroad Park. We love urban parks!
It was cold and overcast, but lots of fun!
We walked across the street and had lunch at Red Cat Cafe. Delicious, and Big Bro loved the name!
We walked back over to the park to explore more!
Before heading home we stopped at Kelly Ingram Park across the street from the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church and started teaching Big Bro about the Civil Rights Movement. It was powerful and sad and humbling.
