Savannah

One of Savannah's many squares

After a couple of nights in Myrtle Beach we drove four hours south to the historical riverside city of Savannah in the state of Georgia. With its gorgeous mansions, cobbled streets, numerous squares surrounded by mammoth twisted oak trees dripping in Spanish moss and its riverside setting, Savannah is a wonderful place to visit. Once voted the most beautiful city in America it felt more like a stroll around the streets of Paris compared to yesterday's stroll around the streets of Benidorm. We stayed the night in a cheap motel a few miles outside the city and were horrified to find there was no microwave in the room when we'd planned one of our special home cooked pasta meals. Once we'd explained our predicament to the staff, they kindly let us use the motel kitchen facilities. What a couple of idiots we looked walking back to our room with a plate of pasta whilst checking that we'd locked the Ford Mustang!
