Our Alabama road trip has come to an end. It takes over 5 hours to drive from Birmingham, Alabama to New Orleans, Louisiana.

Stingray’s Grill & Bar, Kenner, LA Report #575
I’ve been seeing TV commercials for this place and wanting to try it forever. One thing they’re famous for is their Crabby Mary (last picture above).
