Another morning, another dog walk in the wild at Skidaway State Park. The trails here are great, you see a variety of different ecosystems. Marshes, tidal marshes, forested areas. Today Lexie and I walked about 2.7 miles, covering some of the area that I biked on yesterday and some of the trail we walked along yesterday.
The remainder of the day was spent in Savannah! An Uber picked us up at the park’s visitor center.
The Uber driver was very nice and gave us a brief overview of Savannah. We bought tickets for Savannah’s Old Town Trolley and rode around the town for 90 minutes. While there were hop-off/hop-on privileges, we stayed on to get the entire tour.
After the tour we were hungry. The visitor center at the trolley stop recommended Crystal Beer Parlor for food, and we walked on over. On the way over we stopped at the earthworks of the Battle of Savannah historical site (no National Park stamp for this site.)
Crystal Beer is a popular place, especially on a Sunday at 1pm. Rather than wait 30 to 40 minutes, we ordered our food to go, and ate the food at the waiting area/picnic benches outside the restaurant. The person taking our ‘to-go’ order even brought the food out to us! So the service was exceptional. And the food was great: crab soup, shrimp and grits, and peach cobbler.
After lunch we walked through the historic part of the city, enjoying the different squares that make up the old part of Savannah.
An Uber took us back to Skidaway State Park. We enjoyed another, smaller campfire that evening.
