Savannah GA

We decided to take a trip to Savanah as our friends Rob and Caron are in Atlanta and agree to drive down to meet us.

We drive up on the Friday evening so that we have all day Saturday and Sunday morning before making the trip (3-4 hours) back to Orlando.

Saturday morning we took a walk abbout waiting for Rob and Caron to arrive.




Rob - "I hear that ships come into this port" Steve - "Really let me see if I can spot one"



We took a bus ride around the town but for some reason I have no photo's from that must have been so interesting I forgot to take them!


History: During the civil war the Union army camped out in the Colonial Park cemetary, it was not ruined but gravestones where moved or written on, the wall at the back are stones that where moved and the grave site is no longer known, so they put them on wall.



Saturday night and we go to a nice restaurant in the old market - Seafood and Steak. http://www.belfordssavannah.com/. Worth a visit if in the area.

Below to the left is Rob re-enacting the scene from Forest Gump that was filmed in Savannah. "Life is like a box of chocolates", Darcy finding it all very amusing!

After the restaurant and a few beers, Rob decides its time to talk to the Police!

Sunday morning up bright and early and we drive down to Tybee Island for a walk along the beach.



Visit to Savanah done time to drive home, looking forward to our next meeting with Rob and Caron!! - Make it soon.
