Savannah GA

Savannah, a Southern Georgia FIRST city in full bloom has been our home for 3 days. Our park an urban island State Park just over the intra-coastal Atlantic waterway is the most private and beautiful location we have had to date. We are surrounded by oak trees with Spanish moss hanging down several feet, palm trees and large pine trees. Flowering shrubs and trees fill the street medians and sides of the roads and yards of private property. In 1733 this area was called Savannah by British settlers because of the vast marshland and tall grasses. The city was laid out by its original settlers with 21 park like squares in the historic district. These are tree-filled little parks that offer sanctuary and are surrounded by four and five story historic buildings. These have been restored to their original splendor and uniqueness.
