After much contemplation on what to do with the week between Christmas and New Year's Day, I ended up setting up a little trip to Savannah, Georgia in hopes of having a nice relaxing, much needed getaway for Ron. The weather was perfect and the Ballastone Inn was very nice. The first night, we had a wonderful dinner at the Old Pink House and then an entertaining night out at the Savannah Theatre. 10:00am New Year's Eve morning, we had a private walking tour around Savannah, then went off on our own until 5:30 when we took another tour via carriage ride. After a quick stop for a couple of glasses of wine and a bouquet of roses for me, (neither of us ordered them, but seems we were getting the royal treatment!)we finished the tour and were dropped off at The Sapphire Grille for another delicious dinner. After our dinner we walked around River Street to enjoy the New Year's Eve festivities. It was only around 7:30pm and we both thought for just a moment, that we just might make it to midnight to see the fireworks. Right. We were in bed by 10:00 and passed out by 10:30. Yawn. (The night was foggy so no one saw the fireworks anyway!) Our third day, we took off in our rental and drove over to Bonaventure Cemetary and toured the grounds. What a beautiful cemetary!! We also stopped at the Laurel Grove Cemetary, but it just didn't compare to Bonaventure. Next, on to Tybee Island. Enjoyed a nice lunch, a little stroll and a quick stop to see the Tybee Lighthouse. We got back to the inn around 5:00pm and decided to relax in our room and read. We only left the room briefly for some hors d'ouvres and then back up to read until we both fell asleep. Yawn again. I do believe I succeeded in giving Ron the relaxed and enjoyable trip I set out to. Love you Honey!
