Tuscumbia, Alabama

   Along our journey around the United States, our next stop was Tuscumbia, Alabama. We learned some historic facts, like Montgomery is their capital, and it is Helen Keller’s birthplace.  The first rocket to the moon was built in Alabama.  Therefore, the US Space and Rocket Center is also in this state.  Finally, Mardi Gras is a festival that is celebrated in Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, etc.
    We also learned about some pretty outdoor scenery, like their beautiful beaches, their fantastic Spring Park, and their historical Dismals Canyon.  It is a very beautiful place with a stunning waterfall lush, green vegetation. That is what we learned about the marvelous scenery.
    Because of their gorgeous weather, they can incorporate sports all year round.  Here are some entertaining things to do in Alabama, like Pick It Up and Get Busted, which is a game that is similar to dodgeball, football, hide and seek, and tag. Birmingham Zoo, Point Mallard Water Park, hunting, and camping are all fun things to do in the great state of Alabama.
