From Main to Colorado: Spring break.

Josh and I decided to pack up our tent and make a quick road trip to Savannah, Georgia for Spring break. It seemed like the perfect time for a road trip, you know, with final exams and projects on the horizon. We liked the idea of one more “hoorah!” before the end of the semester to liven our spirits.

We stopped in Atlanta en route and visited Josh’s good friends from college, Andrew and Camille. They had been teaching English in Korea for over a year and now have returned to the states. They gave us a comfortable bed, showed us Atlanta’s farmer’s markets, and introduced us to some tasty Vietnamese sandwiches and soups. After this delectable time in A-town, our travel south continued.

Josh and I loved Savannah and appreciated a change in pace! We loved Forsyth Park, River Street’s talented artists, and the many varieties of glazed pecans. We also enjoyed time on the beach at Tybee Island for a day, soaking up the vitamin D. We would recommend the Freedom Trail Tour, which was an educational experience about the civil rights progression in Savannah.

My most favorite parts of the trip were seeing the huge magnolia trees, the Live oaks with Spanish moss, and Painted Buntings on our hikes! If you don’t know what a Painted Bunting is, look it up please! You will be so glad you did.

I hope to remember these fun weekend get-away-trips with Josh. Our little family of two has a lot of love and many places to explore. All we need is our car, tent, and some Vietnamese sandwiches.
