2008 West Alabama Christmas Parade starts County Courthouse, turns at Greensboro Ave and University Blvd, ends 20th Ave., downtown Tuscaloosa AL - The crowd was pretty strong along the parade route. I couldn't believe how long it was. Seems like it lasted until around 8pm. . See some pictures and find other local coverage of the Christmas parade from The TNews. Here's the official link at PARA.

 

Capture Studio Cafe 2217 Univ. Blvd. on the Strip, Tuscaloosa AL. Considering the number of people milling through the downtown streets I am surprised there aren't more people inside Capture. Just one couple who weren't talking, both fully absorbed in their laptops and the cafe's free wireless access. The only other sounds are some holiday music playing over the stereo and the echoing voices of workers in the kitchen. A large order of hot chocolates was being carried out the door by a customer as I walk in so that's what I had. It's a little pricey for hot chocolate, but the drink was very chocolatey and cup was big, so that was good. Capture also specializes in wedding photography and video.
