The rain continues, sometimes getting quite heavy. We started the day with a walk through the historic district of Savannah, then on to the Savannah historical museum.
This is the exact spot Forrest Gump was filmed. Looks like they removed part of the garden to make a bus stop!
We then headed to Charleston, South Carolina in atrocious weather. A look around Charleston downtown – very impressive, but difficult to get photos before checking in to our ‘suite’. Due to a stuff up in the booking (the room we were sent to was still occupied!) we ended up in a huge suite. Luxury. Time to do some washing and maybe find the Walmart Supacenter which is nearby. Our first Walmart. Exciting!
Our next move may be thwarted by the weather. We were due to head up into the Blue Ridge Mountains tomorrow, but according to the Citizen Times in Asheville “Friday’s dumper is now expected to drop up to 10 inches in some places by Saturday morning and could go down in history as one of the big ones, National Weather Service staff are now saying. It is certainly a significant storm. It is too early to say, but the snowfall amounts might put the event in the top 10 for regional blizzards.” Great. We’ll wait and see what tomorrow brings.
Hi to the Hunters! Wow, what a fabulous trip you are all having!! It makes me tired just reading about it! Loving the photos – Amish towns, yellow school buses in snow! You are certainly making the best of your time there even though the weather has made you vary your original rough route! Safe travels!
Ohhh, I LOVE Savannah! I think I even took the same photos as you have. On our trip down from VA, we got caught in a storm and had tornadoes touching down around us!
As I type this on the 31 Dec the suspense is escalating to find out how big the blizzard is and if you end up shovelling your way out!
