We were going to eat at Paula Deens, but were told the food wasn't good

Well, we saw a t-shirt that had a picture of a mosquito and said it was Georgia's State Bird, we believe it. That and sand gnats and anything that flies, we're covered and itching, especially Laurie.

We drove back to the historic part of Savannah so we could walk around and shop where we drove by yesterday on the tour. Such a fun city to walk all over. The city was built around "squares"; there are about 20 squares, they're parks with fountains, or monuments and huge, old oak trees and then the houses are built all around them, it would be great to live in an area like that, you could walk all over through beautiful streets and parks, and little neighborhood shops.

Then we drove about 15 miles to a beach town called Tybee Island. There's a lighthouse there that we drove out to see, there are sea turtles there, but we didn't see any. Very windy on the beach, but very pretty.

On the way back we went to a funky restaurant that we read about in "Road Food" called The Crab Shack, has an alligator pond out front, sits right on the water, and the inside has trees growing through it. Oh, and great crab and shrimp!!
