Thursday- survived (barely) a long day of flying with two stops along the way, topped off the day with some good 'ol southern fried chicken.
Friday - We toured the historic part of Savannah, which is gorgeous! We spent most of the day shopping on the famous River Street. It was pretty cold and breezy, so I had to buy a sweatshirt right away. We even bought little gloves.
The historic sites are so neat and the trees are beautiful! They hang over the streets and have spanish moss hanging down off of them! Ther e are tons of squares and parks with monuments and fountains.
We then went out to Tybee Island and checked into a darling hotel. Then we went out on the pier where Brady had caught a 6 foot stingray while he was on his mission. We ate an amazing dinner of oysters, shrimp, and crab legs at the Crab Shack! It was a great day!
Saturday- It was a lot warmer today. It got up to about 70 degrees. We got up and went down and got our feet in the water.
We checked out of our hotel and stopped by the Tybee Island Lighthouse before heading back into Savannah.
We ate lunch with a family that Brady taught and had macaroni and cheese, black eyed peas, greens, and fried chicken. Some good southern cookin'! 
We visited a few more people then went to the church for a "Low Country Boil." What is a low country boil, you ask? It's shrimp, corn on the cob, sausage, and potatoes all boiled up in southern spices (The picture is not a picture of our low southern boil, it was just a random one I found on the internet). They just dump it out on the table and you just pick out what you want. I'm a big fan now!
Tomorrow we are headed to Tifton for a day then we leave to come home on Tuesday morning. It's been a wonderful get-away!
