Birthday Weekend Celebrations in Savannah

What an amazing weekend! I'm so in love with the city of Savannah, GA now. So much history and beautiful sites to see. And I can't even begin to rave about the food. Just WOW!

K and I left home on Friday morning for a 4 hour road trip to celebrate my 30th in a place new to both of us. 

We checked into our hotel and went to check out Savannah's Riverfront shops and restaurants/bars. Later that night we went to The Olde Pink House for my birthday dinner. This restaurant is a MUST if you're in Savannah. 

Since it was Friday the 13th we booked a Ghost pub crawl after dinner to learn about some of the haunted buildings and history of the city.

Saturday was packed full with site-seeing. We took a ferry on the river over to Hutchinson Island and then a trolley tour around Historic Savannah - the graveyards, beautiful homes from the 1700s, Christmas trees, historic architecture and monuments. Do I sound old now? LOL  I've never been a history buff but this place is just enchanting!

Saturday night we had dinner on the riverfront and then met up with some friends we met on the pub crawl to unwind with some cocktails. 

Sunday was our last hurrah...We had to get one last taste of Southern food before hitting the road to head home to Florida.
Fried Green Tomatoes

Definitely a weekend/trip for the books and the best birthday EVER!
