Savannah

Okay so I'm in Savannah, and it's the start of November. hard to believe it's T-shirt weather. this place is amazing, the soft breezes at night while sitting on a balcony watching the stars, and then the police helicopter flew overhead with his spotlight illuminating a police chase nearby! the old wooden houses are amazing. so well-preserved and warm inside. the facades are painted in various pastels and have just the right amount of wear and tear to look more charmingly antiquated than just looking vaguely dilapidated. having only been here for 24 hours, I'm still experiencing new hostelries and eateries, but so far most of the places I've gone have been extremely satisfying, The Sentient Bean being a perfect neighbourhood coffee shop type of lunchtime hangout that any self-respecting, slightly alternative, 'cool' neighbourhood should have. Mellow Mushroom, despite its name (see following post on how mushrooms and Julia Roberts take joint first on my 'Things I Despise' list), was an experience for the senses, with my hot sauce pizza and a pitcher and good banter shared with good friends.. anyhow, taking a day-trip to Tybee Island tomorrow for picnic and beach-type things. until next time.
Peace.
