Savannah, Georgia ... we will remember you!

Well we have had several challenging days! Arrived in Savannah on Thursday afternoon - continuing cold and drizzly weather and Trevor's cold getting worse by the minute. I think he has had a flu really.

We didn't move anywhere on Friday.  Trevor was very unwell; coughing, sneezing, headache, body ache and tired, tired.  He slept/ dozed on the couch most of the day.

Friday's activities - feeding the squirrels

Saturday turned out to be a better day ... the sun came out! We rang Enterprise Car Rentals and booked a car. Trevor went into the office to sign it all up, but it was a struggle for him.  He is not right.
We went into down town Savannah and explored as much as we could. By now the sun has gone and is replaced by cold winds and threatening skies!



Savannah is said by some to be 'the most beautiful city in America'. It was established in 1733 on the banks of the Savannah River, approx 16 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. The town grid was laid out with small squares designed to deter invaders; today the squares serve as scenic parks filled with statues and fountains.

The city has a beautiful historic district including River Street and Factors Walk both of which are lined with restaurants, cafes, taverns and souvenir shops housed in old warehouses constructed of ballast stone.

 

It looks to be a city designed for walking and we did walk around the historic areas mentioned above. But we came back to the RV late afternoon. Trevor has completely had it!
He had a tiny dinner then back to bed. I stayed up and watched a movie  - Bodyguard. To bed far too late and not feeling so good.  Oh no!

Its a struggle!!!!

Spanish Moss hangs from the trees

Sunday was another cold day! Not even any sun to brighten things up!
I don't feel very well but of course can't say much; after all I had the flu shot so I should be just fine?
Again we head out in the rental car. We have been recommended the sea food at The Crab Shack on Tybee Island on the coast.
Neither of us are feeling like food! We have a drive along the coast. Even the sight of the ocean fails to perk Trevor up - he must be ill!
I get out and take the photos.

Almost a bridge too far ....

We find The Crab Shack.  We had talked of dining there but just can't face it. The next best thing was a 'to go' cup of their Crab Stew. We parked on the coast and ate it and it was good!!!

Some things just have to photographed!
