Bonjour Ya'll!
We are having a nice and relaxing time down here in Savannah. While some of you have been hit by that massive snow storm on the East Coast (hope you are safe and snug!), we feel pretty far removed from our usual cold and snowy Michigan!
There is so much to see and do in Savannah and the surrounding area. The homes are just amazing! What I love is that they all are different, and so full of character and details! Isn't the ginger bread trim on the house above pretty? I wish that I could've gotten a good shot of the weather vane, it was a cherub!
The other day we took a day trip down to St. Simons Island. There were several fun shops in town, many with a beachy feel. Love these fun aqua vintage metal chairs!
And just look at this vintage wooden mermaid!
Thought this sign was a cute spin on the usual "keep calm & carry on"!
Ok, back in Savannah now! Look at this very genteel looking brick home! Notice the moss hanging from the trees?
I loved this amazing urn, outside of a restaurant!
I thought this Venitian mirror was stunning!
This is us! (not a good picture of me at all!) We had dinner the other night with a nice couple we met at the campground. They were raving about "Uncle Bubba's Oyster House", owned by Paula Deen's brother. Well, I can see why they loved it, the food was delish! I had shrimp, and I even tried an oyster (which I thought I would hate!) that was covered in melted freshly grated parmesan cheese. It was so yummy!!! Hubby and shared an equally yummy piece of key lime pie for dessert, which was amazing!
So after several days of site seeing, we are spending some time at the motor home just relaxing and enjoying the warm temps.
That's it for today, hope you all have a great week!
Bonjour Ya'll! Oh Miss Donna....what were you thinking?

How fantastic to be in the sun instead of the snow. Love the photos. You really seems to have a great time.
ReplyDeleteHugs from me
Looks like you guys are having an awesome trip! I love the pictures of the houses...don't you wish you could just walk up to the front door and ask if you could walk through them all? So glad that you are taking us along on your trip!

I'm so happy for you, Donna. What a lovely romantic get-away. Such amazing scenery. We now have freezing rain. I'm just a tad bit jealous.
ReplyDeleteOh you lucky girl you! And aren't you both just the cutest ever!
ReplyDeleteSavannah is such a lovely place and I can't wait to go back. I remember a little shop that was full of lovely white vintage linens. I bought two embroidered white pillow shams and paid a bunch...but I still love them.

ReplyDeleteXO,

I love your holiday photos . . . Savannah looks like a step back in time. So Romantic :)
ReplyDeleteI've been catching up with your Savannah posts, Donna...LOVE them! Great photo of you and your husband! We've been thinking of vacationing there ourselves. I lived in Savannah for nearly four years when I was young...this Minnesota woman has a whole lotta Southern girl in her...
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun, Donna. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI am just loving your trip! Can't go anywhere right now, so it's nice living vicariously through you! Enjoy your motor home! Hope there are more pictures to come!

ReplyDeleteSavannah is such a fun city! I haven't been there in years but it might be time for a return visit. Love your photos. I just found your blog and I love it! I am taking my first trip to Paris in Sept and love all things French so I'm your newest follower! Hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteHi Donna, Oh what fun!! I just love the painted ladies and all the gingerbread details. You sure got some great pics. Glad you enjoyed your dinner out with the friends you met.

Hi ! Oh it looks fantastic ...the homes are wonderful ......and the weather !! have a lovely holiday ! Gail (in chilly England hehehe !) x
ReplyDeleteOh wow, y'all are having an amazing time Donna. I can't get over that glorious architecture on the homes and that beautiful moss on the trees. And a tree in BLOOM!!! I'm living vicariously through you, oh if only to taste that key lime pie.
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable in that photo - glad you and hubby are having such fun!
Donna, What fun you are having. It's the best time of the year for a winter get away too. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteOh I envy you having such a great vacation. The Paris Marketplace was my favorite shop when we visited there. They were so gracious to let us take all the photos we wanted too, and that moss hanging from the trees just sets a southern mood like nothing else. I know you are having a wonderful time and I'm glad for you.
ReplyDeleteI love Savannah! Such a fun and historic town. How long will you be there?
