Savannah GA

Deborah and I had a great time in Savannah GA.  The first night we arrived there we went to the river walk and had dinner at "The River House".  it was delicious.  Deb had a whole lobster an I had oysters, shrimp and flounder.  The next day we did a whirlwind tour of the city.  We started at the Mighty Eighth Air Force Musuem.  The musuem was fascinating and very sad at the same time.  While there we met a WW2 veteran and chatted with him for a little while.  He was a gunner on the B17 bomber and was one of the fortunate to make it through many missions during the bombings of Germany.  We then went to Old Fort Jackson,  this fort was used in the revolutionary war and the civil war.  It was a great little tour with cannon firings.  Then on to an old graveyard where General Nathaniel Green from the Revolutionary war is buried along with many other famous soldiers and leaders.  From there we visited St John the Baptist Cathedral.  The cathedral was beautiful but nothing like the St Louis Cathedral in New Orleans.  We then walked around some of the squares and parks in the city.  It was a lot for one day but got a good feel for the city on that visit.  We would like to go back and spend a few days there.  We left for charlotte the next day.
