Vacation Day 9-Savannah

We spent our last day of vacation in Savannah, Georgia.  The town is full of history, but we had a short period so we loaded up on the trolley which had the top 15 stops in the city.  I tried to absorb all the history, but it was way to much (and very hard with a two year old).  We did see where John Wesley lived for a short period of time (Founder of Methodism).



And we got to visit a gorgeous Catholic Church




Julia Robert's famous phone booth...

check out these fancy gutters...
Matt and Caroline riding on the trolley
We visited and walked the Savannah City Market
Saw the famous Paula Deen Restaurant


Saw the first SCAD building
...all from the seats of this lovely trolley
And who can forget the famous Forest Gump bench!  This is a replica in the Savannah museum.  The original bench is in the Paramount Studios, but we did get to see the lawn where the "bench scene" was filmed.
Savannah had one of the first public dental offices.  Below is a shade guide for the dental crowns.  I have to say...I was pretty impressed with the set-up.

We went to a lot of amazing, historic, and memorable places this year on vacation, but I think Matt and I will agree that the memories that will last forever are the memories of our family time.  We laughed and had so much fun with Caroline.   Those are the memories I wish I could bundle and keep forever.
