Sweet Home Alabama!

I'm sure all my fans will be glad to hear that I'm fully recovered from "Montezuma's revenge." Apparently, I had a "parasite"..."growing inside me." Mexican doctors use so much weird terminology.

This week I had the opportunity to visit a land that I have dreamed about seeing since I was a little baby doughoby: Alabama!

Once again, we were met at the airport by one of my cousins. This time it was Dixie Doughboy. It must have been halloween or something because he was dressed as a ghost. OOOOOOOO...scary. I felt really embarrassed that I didn't have a costume. I should have borrowed Sr. Domanguez's sombrero.

Death said he didn't like Dixie Doughboy. He must have been scared. I tried to tell him that it was only a costume, but he insisted that we find another tour guide. What a wimp.

It quickly became obvious that Death did not like Alabama. I can't see why. There was all sorts of great tourist attractions...like a well,...this big old house,...and we even got to see two cows doing it! But Death didn't seem very interested. He just got back in the plane and said we were going to leave and that I was an insane person and why did I pick this place and that he didn't like how hot it was and he was lame. Well, before we left, I insisted we at least see Alabama's greatest tourist attraction. Death asked what it was and I said it was a surprise.

Honestly, I didn't know what tourist attraction made Alabama so famous, so I picked up this brochure. It was hard to pick which one to go to, there was the Big Peach Statue at Peach Park.

There was the Unclaimed Baggage Center in Scottsboro.

I was leaning towards the Statue of Liberty Replica in Birmingham, but the Coon Dog Cemetery in Cherokee also looked very intersting.

Death really wanted to try the MOOseum in Montgomery. I vetoed that because I wasn't sure if it was about mooses or cows. He also was interested in the Monument to the Hog in Dothan, but I wasn't, so I lied and told him I'd already seen it.




Finally, we decided to go to see the world's largest chair in Anniston. I guess it was big. Apparently there's a lot of controversy over which is actually the largest chair in the world. I wanted to go see all the claimants to the large chair throne, but Death said that was stupid.

In conclusion, Alabama was amazing! We got to see all sorts of great things. The chair was awesome! I got to meet up with my scary ghost cousin. I hope all of our adventures turn out to be this exciting.

Next stop: Bowland!
