Home USA Index Savannah & Charleston

After seven hours on the Interstate highway (the motorways are very boring in this area, tress stop any view) we arrived in Savannah where it was hot & humid, apparently the locals thought it was quite mild for the time of year.
The city has lots of squares and trees. The highlights of the visit was a conducted tour of the Synagogue that looked like a C of E church, a refurbished Catholic Cathedral ($11m worth of refurbishment), different coffee shops, an outlet shop for the local art college and a trip around a house used by General Sherman in the civil war.
After a long hard day looking around town we escaped to Tybee island for a swim, as promised the water was warm. It sure beat the temperature of the sea at Filey (On the other hand anywhere outside the artic circle is warmer than Filey). As we left the beach a storm appeared on the horizon, but it was still very warm.
