I got back from Savannah fairly early on Sunday. I had the most amazing time down there. Between the two weekends, it was filled with fun, pirates, dolphins, and me getting a new tattoo!
The first weekend was fairly laid back. Gen took me to the beach twice, and I got to swim in the ocean for my very first time! I know I know, but I'm from Iowa people. So Deal! Anywho, the first was at night and very cool. The water was surprisingly warm and felt amazing. Although, by the end, I was feeling a little queezy from the waves. The second time was on the Forth, and Gen and I went out and swam near wild dolphins that were feeding near by. SO FRICKEN COOL. I mean, they were a good ten or fifteen yards off, but still. It was sooo neat to see them come up out of the water.
I saw The Devil Wears Prada with Gabe, Gen, and Adam, which was a good movie. I had my reservations about it, but it was done very well, and I love Meryl Streep. She was perfect for the part! This last weekend I came for Pirates, and that was great too. Although we got all dressed up as Pirates for the midnight showing and then it got fake canceled because of a power outage that came back on after they told us it was going to be canceled... Confusing, I know. Swashbuckling fun! Although, the ending left me wanting, and the beginning was kind of slow, totally worth it to see Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow again.
I stayed my last two nights there in a bed & breakfast. That was awesome. A very quaint Victorian house on the outskirts of the historical district in Savannah. I kept thinking there must be some catch, as it was way less expensive than all the other inns, but it was perfect. Beautiful rooms, delicious breakfasts, a soaking pool in the back. If anyone ever visits Savannah, stay at the McMillian Inn. Worth every penny.
Last, but not least, I got inked again. A Celtic Knot of the Tree of Life on my upper back (little to the left). I'm fricken in love with it. It's beautiful. The guy kept asking me if he was hurting me, but it mostly tickled (except in a few places). I can't speak though, cause Gen's tattoo had to have hurt soooo much more. It's truly a warrior's mark! =) Anywho, there was tons more fun I could write about, but that's the gist. I'll save the rest for my hand written journal. ttfn!
