Thanks Giving ( Acknowledging the 'Schneiders')

I embarked on a long drive for a Thanksgiving dinner that included a delightful Oglethorpe Trolley Tour. The experience was majestic, with lush green oak trees adorned with hanging Spanish moss. I spent time visiting souvenir shops and art galleries and enjoyed lunch at the famous "Lady and Sons," Paula Deen's renowned restaurant. I admired the charming gingerbread houses and took a moment to sit on the 'Forrest Gump' bench. I also visited the 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' building, as well as the Wayne-Gordon House, where Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of the Girl Scouts, was born. One of the highlights was the Telfair Museum, the oldest public museum in the U.S., where I had the pleasure of visiting the Jepson Center for the Arts. I enjoyed a leisurely walk along historic River Street and capped off the day with dinner at the award-winning Jazz’d Tapas restaurant, which featured lively Latino music. There's so much more to share, but I’ll let my pictures tell the rest of the story. This is Savannah Tour Part 1 for you!
