We escaped from Florida today and not a moment too soon. An early breakfast with Peep started our day, then we packed the car and and got on the road. A brief stop at a starbucks in Jacksonville to see and old and dear friend who I hadn’t seen in far too many years broke up today’s travels.
Finally in Savannah. Our favorite room at the Planters Inn with a semi private balcony overlooking one of the squares. Best part is room service on the balcony from Ye Olde Pink House.

Leopolds ice cream- girl scouts thin mints and cream, rum raisin and rum ?
Can you tell we were hungry? Leopolds has become a tradition since last trip, especially since it’s walking distance. There’s now a hemp shop downstairs from the hotel too so we found a cute little pouch for me to stash things in and a few other neat little things quite reasonably priced.
Tomorrow we’re off to Raleigh.
