Savannah Georgia

 Today we finally arrived at the coast!  Savannah Georgia.  Ate at Uncle Bubba's Restaurant.  Paula Deen and her brother, Bubba's restaurant.  Lots of Paula old time photos and memorabelia on the walls.  But NO Paula : >((   But the food was great.  We then experienced an East coast waterway and sunset.  It has been a bit windy (left over Tropical Storm Sandy) but the wind is suppose to decrease later tonight.  I just love hearing the southern drawl but we've had to ask a few people to repeat what they said because we didn't understand.  We obviously have an "ancent" too, because many hear us talk and ask "where ya'll from?"  Corn muffins and red rice is definitely good in the south.  Going to visit Old Town Savannah tomorrow. 



Old Town Savannah was really neat.  We purchased a "walking map" and took our own tour walking the town.  The downtown area is divided into squares and each has a historical significance.  Walked about 5 miles.  Revoluntionary war, Civil war history.  Most haunted city in America.  Saw Lady & Sons Restaurant, again NO Paula Deen.  She was going to be there the next day for a book signing.  Didn't go back.  Beautiful river front and 1700's buildings where ships would dock and take or leave there merchandise.  Cobblestone streets.  Now many gift shops and restaurants.  Great city to see and explore.
