Hilton Head Vacation Day 3: Savannah

Today we took a day trip to Savannah, GA. I’d read an article in the New Orleans Times Picayune that the best way to start a trip in Savannah is a bus tour. We found a tour that would give us a private tour for a very reasonable price, so we took that tour. The guide was very informative.

After the tour, we went to the Six Pence Pub for lunch. This was also recommended by the writer of the article for the corned beef Rueben. Chris and Dad really enjoy Rueben sandwiches, so we thought this would be a great place and it was.

We went walking through the historic district, which included a stop at the Paula Deen store. Our tour guide told us that an underground fire had interrupted electric service since Saturday and, though power was restored, Paula Deen’s Lady and Sons restaurant would still be closed because she lost all the food; however, the restaurant reopened this morning.

Finally, we went to the riverfront area, took the ferry, and saw the Waving Girl statue. Back at the condo, we relaxed while mom made spaghetti for supper. After supper, we went for a dip in the pool. Here are the pictures!
