If you are a history buff of any level, do yourself a favor and head to Mobile, Alabama. There at Battleship Memorial Park, you will find a great collection of tanks, airplanes and a submarine too. Oh, and don’t forget to look over at the pier, just in case you didn’t notice the BATTLESHIP parked there. This is the real McCoy, the USS Alabama; big and mean. Sure, it might be out-dated from a technology standpoint, but the cannons on this puppy don’t come any bigger. Almost the entire ship is open for the public to walk through too. You can go all the way to the bottom and see how the cannons were loaded or walk around the mess hall and crew quarters. It’s a fun day for the entire family.
