Savannah Getaway


Bobby and I decided to see historic Savannah for our 3rd anniversary. The town was everything that everyone had said it was, but we learned a couple of things the hard way. Make hotel reservations ahead of time and don't take US 17 all the way into the city. :) We enjoyed our scenic drive up the coast on US17, but learned the easiest way into the historic district is Abercorn (SR 204) which is where we wound up staying for the night also. We learned that the line waiting to get into Paula Deen's restaurant is over a block long. Our tour guide said that the line was a combination of folks with reservations and those who wanted to make reservations. I think the wait was going to be 2 to 3 hours ! We wound up having a wonderful time riding the trolley and hearing the history of the city...we got off and on several times and enjoyed walking the area also. On River St you have to be careful not to turn your ankle - the cobblestones are large and rounded - not a place for a wheelchair either. You can see the pictures of our weekend HERE (then click on slideshow). I definitely would like to go again, but will be more prepared next time !
