Demopolis - Activities

Thomas enjoys riding around Demopolis from the marina

   While we enjoy the beautiful sunny days in Demopolis, we are amazed at the improvements to the new area of the marina.  Those of you who remember our blog from 2009, we said "Demopolis is no metropolis".  Well, the town is still small and sleepy, but have the basics you need in any small town in AL or MS.  The owners of Demopolis Yacht Basin have definitely improved your stay at this crucial marina by adding a new section with new docks.  Very nice!  Water, pumpout, and electricity available at every slip, as well as a very nice Clubhouse with 4 washers & dryers and beautiful bathrooms with showers.  They have a couple golf carts to move between the 2 marinas, which Thomas has been enjoying immensely!  He is practicing for when he gets to drive a real car!  

Many cruisers bring bicycles with them when they travel, so they have some form of transportation at their destination.  Since we are 4 people, that's a lot of bikes!  Therefore, we brought 1 of our folding bicycles with us as a trial run to see if anyone would actually use it.  Thomas insisted on it.  So, yesterday, he took off on the bike to explore downtown Demopolis by himself.  Matthew & I drove over the park with a playground, and he met us there.  Brought back memories from our last stay here!
