camped in a state park in alabama last night. was really close to the coast and it was pretty funny sight. my tiny 2 man tent in a sea of RVs. managed to lose my tent pegs somewhere but luckily Fred, retired pensioner from mitchigan, helped me out and even took me for my first wallmart experience which was cool. Fred manouvered the cart around aisles of just about everything including spare car tyres!
got up early this morning and cycley along a peninsular where i caught a ferry across to Dauphin island. have been biking pretty quickly this morning as the wind has been behind me. am now in Forest Gump or Bubba shrimp village (Bayou La Batre) which is pretty basic and i feel like i really am in the the south now. somebody even called me Bubba when i opened the door for him! Could be through Alabama by the end of the day. Bring on mississippi!
