Day 12 - Savannah, Georgia

Day 12, March 30, Savannah
I’ve been wanting to visit Savannah for years and we’re here! We found the Visitors Center and ask one of the volunteer ladies if there was a map of a walking tour since we have our little buddy Tipper with us. She first apologized about the weather being so cool, and then proceeded to draw us an outline for a tour. We ask her if there would be any issues with having a dog with us and she said, “ no problem, if he doesn’t mind walking, we don’t mind having him”. We hadn’t even gotten out of the visitors parking lot and Tipper had already ticked me off with his constant pulling. Betsy and I looked at each other and it dawned on us that since it was cool and cloudy Tipper could survive in the truck. Our tour became a lot more enjoyable. We saw the City Market and the Wharf areas, both of which are nothing more than big tourist traps. We walked several blocks on Bull Street and it was awesome—the parks every couple of blocks, the houses, the flowering shrubs. I think our walk took about and hour and a half and we were pooped at the end, but boy was it worth it. JK
An absolutly beautiful city. I had a ball taking pictures of the homes, parks and the magnificent flowering shrubs.
