After driving seven hours we arrived in Savannah. We are staying at a beautifully renovated historical inn called “17 Hundred 90 Inn”. One of the rooms in the main inn is reputed to have a ghost, Annie, make appearances. We are not staying in that room, but I’m sure Annie knows I’m here, and that I’m friendly. I will let you know if she makes her presence known to me!
We quickly unpacked our things for our two days here and walked down to River Road by the Savannah River. River Road is full of great shops and restaurants. I found a FANTASTIC candy store named “Savannah’s Candy Kitchen”. Of course, I bought a couple of samples to enjoy later tonight! They also had homemade ice cream and you could also watch them making Pralines. We stopped at a restaurant/bar called “One-Eyed Lizzy’s”. Mondays are “Margarita Mondays” at “One-Eyed Lizzy’s”, so I’m sure you know what I ordered. Ladd had a beer and we munched on some GREAT, spicy Taco Dip with taco chips. One of the best things about our visit there was our fun waitress/bartender, Rhonda! Thanks for the conversation and laughs, Rhonda!
As we headed back to our room at “17 Hundred 90 Inn”, we decided to stop in at their bar. It brought to mind “Cheers”: full and welcoming. We met a couple at the bar and had a good conversation and many laughs with them and with the bartender. It definitely didn’t take us long to feel “at home” in Savannah!
