thanksgiving

I am thinking about bringing my family to birmingham for a few days during thanksgiving break. Our boys are 6 %26amp; 8 yrs old. I know we would like to do the mcwayne center. What else are must do%26#39;s? Anything outdoors would be great. A couple of years ago, we took them to chatanooga %26amp; did the aquarium, ruby falls, ect. They loved it. Especially the caves %26amp; outdoors stuff like that. Any ideas? Tks 2boys

There%26#39;s also the University of Alabama for you to visit while in Tuscaloosa. Bear Bryant Museum is there too. You would want to check the schedule for that though.
