Blue skies, 80 degrees and less then 100% humidity, sounds like a great day to visit savannah. Crossing the bridge from Hilton head , a right turn to Blufton and rural South Carolina is in front of us in all its southern spender. Magnolia ‘s the size of cauliflowers, Spanish moss on the trees and wires are guiding us to the Charming City on the Georgia coast. We cross the bridge over the Savannah River, park the car and enter the touristy area of the town. Sugary candies, a staple of the south, Pecan’s bathed in delicious, called pralines. Popcorn in a thousand flavors and a delicious chocolate bath to dip your toes in and s……. them
so what’s nice about savannah, according to one shop-owner, the people are crazy which is a plus, you can drink on the street , not outta glass but out of plastic . There is a well shaded square at about every city block. Old oak with luscious moss draped on them. Fountains galore and the ghost of Kevin Spacey walking the streets. We took a leisurely stroll down Bull street, The main , non touristy , street cutting the city in two equal halves. Beautiful old antebellum houses, gardens of eden and a square park every other block. Here are some photos.
we stopped by the only open church in Savannah to wash away our sins, we were done quickly.
O yeah , we started our walk with a juicy Bloody Mary, Olives and okra !
