Savannah, Georgia


Today is Friday and the second day on Hilton Head! We got up as early as two young kids can on vacation and had breakfast at the Original House of Pancakes again...what can I say, we really like that place! I got pecan pancakes which were slammin' and Tony got silver dollar pancakes and eggs. After breakfast we took a road trip down to Savannah. It was about 45 minutes south of Hilton Head. What a cool little town! They have an art school there so naturally the whole town is decked out in artwork. We did so many fun things while we were there! We went shopping at all of the little shops and boutiques in town. There were so many things I was tempted to buy! We went to this really neat French market that had so many old world items like French milled soap, fresh picked lavender, books, and tons of other neat stuff. We went in and looked at a couple historic houses and museums, we went and had lunch at a place called the Pirates House which was actually an old house that sea-farer's and pirates used to stay at while they were in Savannah! It was super cool! We also went and saw The Pink House which was a super old historic house there in Savannah that is also a restaurant. Next time we're in Savannah we want to eat lunch there! The whole town was very energetic and fun! Every block of Savannah is broken up into little squares with a little park in the center surrounded by houses and stores. Everything is really old and French-like! So much fun! We had to head home early, though, from Savannah because the wedding party was having a rehearsal dinner party we were invited to attend. I can't wait to come back to Savannah really soon and check out all of the awesome stuff we didn't have a chance to look at!

  1. You guys did a great job of checking out Savannah. Isn't it a cool town ? There is so much to see that you could spend a week just visiting there. I am so glad you have the AAA for your towing.
