DELAWARE TRIP PART 2
Interstate 20 Alabama

Interstate 20 runs from Interstate 10 in west Texas to Interstate 95 near Florence, South Carolina. The highway travels through several cities including Dallas, Shreveport, Monroe, Vicksburg, Jackson, Meridian, Birmingham, Atlanta, and Columbia. I drove Interstate 20 from Interstate 635 near Dallas, Texas, to Interstate 95 during the first three days of Delaware Trip Part Two.
