Day 7: Sunbury to Savannah

4 hr 10 min. Half a day today, up another sinuous portion of the ICW, again with the company of dolphins, and into historic Savannah for an afternoon of exploring. What will be open on a Georgian Easter Sunday? We'll see.

Well, we pulled into the Isle of Hope Marina in a southern island suburb of Savannah, tied up, and left Preston to it as we ordered up an Uber and rode into the North Historic District of downtown Savannah, to catch a hop-on/hop-off bus tour... a 90 min circuit, and stay aboard if you want more; which we did to get back to the waterfront precinct for a very late lunch/early dinner. A totally excellent exercise!

The so-called 'Spanish Moss' (which they tell us is neither Spanish nor moss) hanging from the Live Oak trees is such a 'down-home, southern feature, we can't help but think of numerous movies we've seen, including Forrest Gump, quite a bit of which was filmed in Savannah and its parks. Tonight we'll go back to the boat and get "Midnight In The Garden Of Evil" up on Prime Video. None of us has seen this and we should, as it features much of the Savannah we've just explored.

Tomorrow, it's onwards to Beaufort (say BEW-fit) South Carolina, but tonight we have Georgia on our minds.Leer más
