Day 39
Nov. 19
Dauphin Island, AL
Dear Miss Smith,We got up today and after breakfast first thing, Miss Priscilla said I could wear one of her hats. Priscilla has a bunch of hats so it was hard to choose from them all, but I finally choose Lady Diane.
We then drove to Mobile the city where the Conde-Charlotte Museum House (also known as the house of five flags) is.
Five flags have flown over this house- French, English, Spanish, American & Confederate |
The house was very interesting it had French rooms,
French |
English rooms,
British |
Confederate |
We decided to take one of the 45 minute tours so we could learn as much as possible. Elizabeth’s and my favorite rooms were the confederate rooms because they were decorated with our favorite color pink.
We had a quick lunch and then drove to USS Alabama.
The USS Alabama was used during WW2. Did you know Miss Smith that the USS Alabama is 680 feet long? We walked on the decks. It was huge. We also saw the aircraft collection. They had tons of planes there. We saw the mess hall, and pavilion. My favorite thing that we did today was walking on the decks.
We then drove to the Dauphin House Bed & Breakfast
where we’re spending the night. I made Miss Priscilla the promised homemade bread today. It turned out pretty good. It’s getting late I guess I better get some sleep.
Sincerely,
Susanna
