June Road Trip 2013 - Savannah - Day 2

We drove into Savannah for a second day to tour around the city.  One of our goals was to find the waving lady.  She was said to have waved each day to sailors passing for 44 years!  We walked again along River Street (cobblestone streets) and found The Peanut Shop - they had the most samples of any store ever!!  We had a nice snack!

 

 

Walking around the town we found some other cool shops - one was an old mansion (one of the oldest) that now had antiques on each of the four floors.  We also admired the amazing old houses, pretty trees, and architecture.

 

Doug found a place to eat called The Pirates' House.  It was a unique place in that it was an old inn and tavern for sailors and pirates passing through the area. We ate here and then got a tour of the building from a "pirate."  We learned a lot about the history of the building and other interesting little tidbits.

We really enjoyed Savannah - we would come back again because there were tons of interesting restaurants and shops all over the place!

We left for Charleston later in the afternoon.  Unfortunately we couldn't sleep in Sandy, we had to stay at a Hampton Inn because of the rain.
