Savannah!

Scott and I decided that we needed a break, so we decided to head to Savannah, Ga. I was so excited because this is the first vacation we have had alone together since our honeymoon three years ago. And it was the first time I have ever been to Savannah. So Friday after work Scott and I drove 3 1/2 hours to our hotel. We checked in and then decided to go eat some food. Scott decided he wanted to eat somewhere nice, so we made some reservations. Well I had only brought shorts and t-shirts to wear cause I was not expecting to go somewhere nice. Scott said that I could do some shopping! I was so excited, I have not bought clothes in I don't know how long. A couple months ago I bought a 2 shirt and jacket, and before that it had been about 1 year since I have gotten any clothes. So we stopped by and I got me a couple of out fits. We went and ate some good sea food on Riverstreet and after that we walked to the river to sit and listen to some music. Well as I sat down and took my purse off my camera fell out of my purse and into the Savannah River! I was so upset, I wanted to jump in and get it, but Scott said that there was no use. I was so mad at myself, so we went back to the hotel. (So no picture of the first day in Savannah). The next day Scott said that we couldn't go on vacation and not have a camera, so we stopped by best buy and bought another one. I was pretty upset that I had to buy another camera, but it is way nicer than my other one, so that made me feel better. Then we raced back to Riverstreet and bought tickets for a River boat ride. (pictures from my new camera)



We rode on the Savannah River Queen



Here is River Street from the boat


After the boat ride we stopped by another restaurant and ate some of the best gumbo I have ever had! It was so good. Here is Scott in the Restaurant (he is so darn cute) next to a wall that i think looks so awesome.


Right after we ate, it started getting real dark outside, so we decided to cut the vacation short and go home. right as we were getting off of Riverstreet, the rain started pouring down, and the wind started blowing. We left just in time, but it was still really bad on the roads. But all in all it was a fantastic vacation! I hope we can go on another one here soon!



I thought the trees were so beautiful!



The hurricane like storm we got to drive home in
