On to Georgia

Nov 28 - Dec 1   Savannah, GA

After a lovely stay in Hilton Head, it was time to move on to Savannah, GA and the Isle of Hope Marina.  Once again, we were met with a very accommodating staff and great spot.   

This was the perfect place to take advantage of a free weekend car rental I had earned in my "working" life (seems a very long time ago now!).  The marina was about 8 miles from downtown Savannah, so the car allowed us to enjoy the city at our own pace.  

It was still Thanksgiving weekend, and the beginning of their holiday festival of lights.  The kickoff event was a lighted boat parade on the Savannah river.  We had a great time bar hopping on the waterfront, enjoying the parade and fireworks and topping the evening at Lulu's --- 

the guys had dessert, the gals dessert drinks mmmmmmmm good!

In keeping with the spirit, we got lighted wreaths for our back decks and Garry got the blue lights hung in the pilot house, too.

Savannah has a very different feel from Charleston --- with it's neighborhood squares and the great waterfront district, it's a walk-friendly city.  We'll be back!
