Savannah - Day 1

We strolled into Savannah around 3PM on Sunday and got settled in our hotel room...

We had this amazing view of the pool and also of River Street across the Savannah River...

When it approached dinner time, we decided to take the free ferry across the water to River Street. We waited for the boat for a few minutes...

Then the boat arrived...

River Street!!!!

We ate at a little Louisiana restaurant called "Huey's" and it was delicious. But, the best part of the meal - the fresh beignets...

Of course, all Bri wanted to hit was the candy store...

We made it!!!!

Hugs from Daddy...

Briana was fascinated watching the taffy making. She was fixated on everything the taffy maker was doing...

Delicious pralines...

Handmade chocolate lollipops...

Somehow Briana convinced me to get her a huge lollipop...

As we waited for the ferry to take us back to the hotel, we watched a man play the trumpet. He also passed about balloons to little kids...

You can see the sun was starting to set and it was getting a bit cloudy. Definitely time to head back...

And thank goodness we headed back when we did. An hour later, a huge thunderstorm came through. I managed to snap one of the lightning bolts. Yikes!!!

I will blog about Day 2 next. Swim time and more River Street!!!
