All aboooarrrddd......the Anti-Lame train!!

So...since I have the best friends EVER, I got a surprise birthday excursion this Saturday, which of course coincided with our Find Fun in Birmingham syllabus. We started our day with a sugar coma induced by Dreamcakes Bakery.  This place would be a wonderful place to take a date on a Saturday afternoon, and you can stroll along the streets (which actually have a variety of fun shops) while eating your dessert.

Our next stop was the new, multi-million dollar Railroad Park downtown. We were extremely impressed with this spacious, fun, exciting new park! Way to go Birmingham! There was a diverse and large crowd, which was nice...because, as we know, the first step to overcoming lame-ness  is attendance. I will let the pictures speak for themselves, but it was in an industrialized yet scenic location and had a very modern feel. Our football passing turned into a full-blown scrimmage when some young kids joined in the fun! All-in-all the Railroad Park brings community, physical activity, and physical beauty to downtown Birmingham! It is also a great way to spend a non-lame Saturday!






Continue the fight against lame-ness!
