Savannah is a really neat city. We went on a horse drawn carriage ride throughout the city and seen most of the old squares. The city was found in 1733 and the first person was buried in the city cemetery in 1735. Two of the first laws in the city were that there would be NO hard liquor and NO catholics allowed. As a Catholic my thought was "if they didn't have hard liquor why would the Catholics want to be there anyway" (ha! ha!). There was Spanish Moss hanging from all of the trees. It is a really beautiful city. A mix of Pirate, Revolutionary War, Civil War and Modern history. The attached picture of the square if were Forrest Gump ate his box of chocolates!
