Quality Inn Savannah Midtown

... s so many hungry kids in America.<br> <br> Our visit north to Myrtle Beach was full of way too much excitement (the wrong kind of course). After enjoying football and wings with my son, Jared, and his new wife Lovae, we received a visit from a young man in a knit cap crawling across our hotel room floor toward my purse at midnight (of course the blond had all the money in there - Dave will never learn). I'm sure being confronted by a ...

Today was a pretty fun filled day! Only had to drive about 15 miles to make our first stop which was in Charleston, SC. We found our way to the downtown area and found a place to park. Sometimes that little task seems to take quite sometime and can be quite stressful in the big o'l van, but thankfully it was pretty easy today! Downtown Charleston is quite nice. It has amazing old buildings. The street ...

... they define cool apparently. <br>Quick hop on hop off city tour, viewed the Mercer House, wandered the squares, had a couple of beers and more deep fried food down on the waterfront and then home for afternoon jetlag sleep. Had a ghost tour at night, we survived without being haunted by demons. <br><br>All feeling a bit knackered by time we got home at midnight.<br>

Savannah is really a great place to visit. If you go make sure to take the trolley tours, it's well worth the money. It's nice to sit back, not worry about the traffic and listen to your guide as he narrates the tour. You are free to get on and off as you wish, because there are many areas where you will like to spend some time.

... for 5 minutes just the time they do their business and after I am done, you can come in"... At first, I thought the dog park was hers. It was a first! The first time I wait in line to go in a dog park!!! Usually, you just go in with your dogs and that's it! It was very funny to pay the parking metre to watch someone else's dog poop! After escaping the February 1st storm, driving all day, we ...

... joke about stopping which definitely got Mike's attention, but we just kept driving. At 3:00 we tried listening to the radio again but we couldn't find anything good. We kept getting a lot of Nashville stations and none of us are country fans so we just drove on in silence. At 3:20 we stopped at the Exit 99 rest stop to run into the bathroom and walk Oreo. As we ...

... we walked down on Congress St. and perused some of the shops as we went along. Lots of stuff to see here - and buy. Before you know it, it was almost time for the book signing, we headed back to the Lady and Sons and stood in line. Sure enough, we got to see Paula Dean and her husband Michael, they signed our book, exchanged pleasantries and then we left. Not bad for our first outing in Savannah.
