Fairhope Photo Album: Grand Hotel, and Point Clear

After departing downtown Fairhope, we drove south along scenic 98 to Point Clear to see the Marriott Grand Hotel. I didn't get any shots of the main hotel, but these pix are of one of the side wings, and the pier/beach.

Seen along the road... kudzu, the vine that ate the south.
More kudzu.

Point Clear (I think that's the actual point, there); the hotel wraps around the other side.

Pelicans soared overhead in formations, pausing only to make great dives into the waves, fishing for dinner.
