This past Saturday I met my mom, dad, sister, aunt and family friend in Savannah to start our southern city mini-tour. I made the drive in 6.5 hours and arrived in time for some afternoon sight-seeing.
Savannah is a beautiful,
historic tree-filled town laid out in 22 squares (there used to be 24).
Each square consists of a park in the middle with stunning homes surrounding it. I felt at home as soon as we started walking through each square.

| Juliette Gordon Low's home - Founder of the Girl Scouts |
Some squares had cafes or coffee shops on the corner - presh
 |
| Six Pence Pub- shown in the movie Something to Talk About |
 |
| Restaurants along the riverfront |
 |
| Sarah, Aunt Lynn, Mom & Me |
 |
| Our hotel, the Mulberry Inn |
We found a local brewery that had a restaurant in it - Moon River Brewing Company. I had the Wild Wacky Wit which was quite good. The food was pretty good too.
 |
| Forsythe Square - the largest of them all, over 30 acres |
 |
| One of my fave houses we saw |
The second night we decided to go check out Tybee Island, which was about a 20 minute drive from Savannah. It's a super cute beach town, more residential than the beaches you find in North Carolina.

We had dinner at "Marlin Monroes" on the island - yummy seafood and beautiful scenery.
I absolutely loved Savannah and look forward to the next time I get to visit there. We left on Monday morning to head to Charleston, with a stop in Beaufort, SC on the way....
