Adventures In: Savannah, GA

Wednesday, July 29, 2015

Hey y'all! if you are just now visiting my blog, first, welcome! And Adventures In...is a segment documenting places I have traveled to and telling about my experience at said place. While back home in South Carolina, my husband, parents, and I spent the day in Savannah, Georgia. Being a former design student, I knew Savannah for SCAD (Savannah College Of Art & Design) and of course another hot spot for amazing southern cuisine, but don't be alarmed, Savannah is much more just art & food, there is something for everyone & tons of stuff or activities to do!

To be truthfully honest, we mostly just walked around. Our wait at The Lady & Son's, which is also known as the famous restaurant owned by none other than queen of southern cuisine herself, Paula Deen, took a waiting time of 3 hours to even see a plate of food. I may now suggest making a reservation ASAP, especially during the summer. We all ended up eating the buffet and yes, we did enjoy it, but I wouldn't wait 3 hours to eat it again. It was more about the experience to cross it off of my bucket list.


After eating, we just took a stroll around the area, enjoying the scenery. I mostly enjoyed the trees and the sunshine, and just the simple things that money can't buy. It was nice to see more than just desert and be with my family for a little while. We also had to stop in the candy store and watch the candy get made, because it's oh so fascinating and I swore I literally could feel my teeth rotting out though because of how much sugar was in the air. LOL. My sweet tooth, can't help but crave chocolate and pralines though. :) 


All in all, it was a successful day. Thank y'all for coming along on our Adventure in Savannah. Till later, alligator. ;)


Adventures in: Charleston, SC

Tuesday, July 7, 2015

Is it just me or do other people get the travel bug during the summer like we do? blame it on my gypsy soul. Over the years I've definitely developed a love for traveling and sight seeing. This summer since we went back home we decided to do two side trips, our first one being in Charleston, SC. Charleston holds a very special part in our hearts since it was where we went for our mini-moon before Tyler set off on a journey to our first base. It's not too far from home.

Even though we were feeling the 3 hour difference and got out the door late, once we got there it was nice to just stroll around and soak in all the history as well as the beautiful sights that the Charleston had to offer. We ended up eating where we ate during our mini-moon and doing a carriage tour and let me tell you, that guy knew his stuff - I wish I wasn't so bad at remembering names (I remember faces) or else I'd highly recommend him.

Anyways, I know you people hate reading books, so ladies and gentleman I've prepared a collage for you so you can live vicariously through our vacation as you please or if you're a family member keeping track of our adventures, then enjoy!
