Thinking about a family beach vacation that's a little more laid-back (and less crowded) than the usual Florida hotspots? In this episode, I'm sharing everything we loved about visiting Alabama's Beaches with kids from beachfront condo resorts and dolphin cruises to giant cinnamon rolls and indoor waterparks for rainy days.
