Af: Christian Denne morgen står vi tidligt op og spiser morgenmad med alle børnefamilierne. Der er en masse søde vafler med form som Mickey Mouse og alt mulig morgenmad, som vi slet ikke kan overskue. Vi finder heldigvis en yoghurt og en banan. Så er det blevet tid til at købe billetter. Vi har besluttet at tage den klassiske park med alle de figurer man kender fra Disney show. Parken hedder Magic Kingdom og den ligger langt væk.

Mobile and Dauphin Island - 7th-8th October We arrived in Mobile (pronounced Mobeel) a little after 4pm and headed towards the tourist information centre to get our bearings of local area. Mobile rests about 150 miles East of New Orleans on the Gulf Coast and we decided it would be a nice stop prior to heading to New Orleans itself. Upon arrival Mobile looked very much like an industrial city with ports and trains coming in and out on a regular basis. After speaking to the 2 friendly, elderly ladies in the tourist info who gave us lots of ideas of things to do, we then reserved our campsite 10 miles north of Mobile.
