Wandering around in Savannah, Georgia

On the way down to Michelle and Scott's wedding in Orlando, we stopped in Savannah, Georgia. We stopped there on the way back too, and this time we had more time for seeing the sights.



You can barely read the sign, Lady and Sons, for Paula Dean's restaurant in Savannah. We wanted to eat there, but there was a long wait. I did manage to get inside just to see it.  Guess I will just have to enjoy her recipes!


One of the streets is always closed to traffic and pedestrians can enjoy strolling past the stores and restaurants. this was just outside one! 


Johnny Mercer wrote "Moon River" and this statue is dedicated to him.


We also found Moon River Brewery. This is a sweet potato ale, with pumpkin pie spice and crushed pumpkin seeds around the rim of the glass, delicious!


There were lots of spacious parks in Savannah, like this one.


A 50 foot tall marble obelisk marks the remains of Nathanael Greene in the center of the park.

Dinner that night was at Churchill's next door to the Moon River Brewery. Service was impeccable, the food delicious and you had the feeling that you were in a pub in London! Don was very British that night, ordering prime rib with Yorkshire Pudding!

Life is good and the food is delicious!
