Savannah & St. Augustine



Savannah - beautiful historic district, gorgeous architecture and interesting history. Definitely want to go back and spend time. Took the trolley ride... catch it on Martin Luther King Street - across from the Visitors Center. Cost was about $30 / person. Took about 1 1/2 hours.

Most interesting - the Sears "kit house" that was put together but the windows were installed upside down. The African something something (can't remember the full name) church that was a stop on the Underground Railway - apparently if you tour it you can see the air holes that were put in the floor for the hiding slaves. And The Pirate House where Robert Louis Stevenson supposedly wrote part of Treasure Island.
