Steve’s take

A World War II battleship you can walk through, climb on, and pretend to command — plus a submarine right next to it. Your kids will spend two hours running through gun turrets and engine rooms and you will briefly consider whether you were meant for a life at sea. The USS Alabama is right off I-10 in Mobile and it's the single best kid-friendly stop between New Orleans and Pensacola. The submarine is a tight squeeze but your kids will love it. You might get stuck.
