Simply Savannah: Day 2

Saturdays we get up and head out to Tybee Island for a relaxing day at the beach. We love getting out here fairly early in the morning so we can park on one of the side streets as soon as you turn the corner on Tybee. We normally get set up our umbrellas, get our chairs out and hit the water when it gets hot. This year we got a Yeti bag cooler and it was a great investment. It is small enough to pack in the car, sturdy and kept our drink cold. Most days we still had ice from the day before so it is true to it's name.

After a day in the sun we pack up shortly after lunch and head to the best little seafood place in Georgia, The Crab Shack. Amazing, fresh and oh so yummy seafood platters to share await you at this gem. This year we all shared the platter for 3 and it did not disappoint, but definitely come hungry because the mountain of seafood will surely take you a while to beat.
Seafood Platter for 3!
We always try one new dinner place each year. This year we made reservations for The Grey. This is a new restaraunt on MLK Jr Boulevard near Market Square and used to be the old Greyhound Bus Station. They have kept many of the elements while remodeling this into a wonderful dining establishment. We really enjoyed the atmosphere of The Grey and overall the food was good. Smaller portions so definitely try of few of their courses.

After such wonderful meal at They Grey we decided to do some walking around and enjoy some of the many squares around historic Savannh. Johnson Square provides a great view of city hall.

While we were out walking around we looked for a new place to have drinks at. We found a great little place on Broughton called The Chive. We walked in and it had such great decor. I loved the lighting behind the bar. We looked at the menu and decided all that walking around deserved a cheese board to go with the Veuve Cliquot Rose.

Enchanting Edinburgh

Back to my most favorite city I have yet to visit, Edinburgh. If a city was considered the love of my life I have to say this would be it. I have never felt more alive or enchanted by a city.Those first few minutes when you are arriving in the city just amaze me. The beauty, architecture, old city feel, I literally feel transported back in time. While here we visited the castle, traveled various closes, hiked to Arthur's Seat and just took in all the beauty we could over a few days. Arriving at Waverley Station Beautiful view on Advocates Close, just a few more steps down to Devil's Advocate a fantastic bar! Night view as we walked down Royal Mile Panorama view from Arthur's Seat Just breathtaking! Inspiration for Diagon Alley in the Grassmarket area "Best Place for a Castle Selfie" in Edinburgh We had so much fun exploring the city before we headed to the Scottish Highlands and made friends with the hairy coo!

Aruba: One Happy Island

Cherokee's Traveling Trio went to Aruba! We were thrilled to be heading to the beach and enjoyed a relaxing trip away. We laid on the beach for hours and soaked up the sun.  We stayed at the RIU Palace Aruba, which is a beautiful all inclusive resort on the famous Palm Beach. We enjoyed being by the pool or enjoy the huts on the beach, if you want a beach hut be sure to get up early and get out there with your stuff. They are quickly taken by eager beach bums. The water is blue and calm, which makes for a most relaxing day near the water. The walk back to the hotel takes seconds, but security checks to make sure you are a guest of the hotel before allowing entrance.   One day we took our rental car out to explore the island. We drove to the Natural Bridge and up to the North side of the island. We did a little off roading, not intentionally, but we seen the side of the island that most people don't. We enjoyed taking our time to see all around, but...

Luck O' the Irish

After a quick flight we arrive in Dublin, Ireland. We hop on the wrong airlink bus, so we end up about 30 minutes away from our Airbnb, Uber to the rescue and get us to the right place. We have a great private room near the Jameson Distillery. Once we arrive we take a nap and head out to see Temple Bar area and to get some food. We enjoy walking around checking out all the nightlife, it makes me feel like were on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. There are just so many people out and about and Irish music coming from every direction. As we are walking along it is hard to come from such a beautiful city to Dublin, since it looks very industrial yet it still has so much charm. We enjoy the sites of Dublin Castle, St. Patrick's Cathedral, the Spire and Temple Bar District. One of my favorite breakfast places to eat at is Queen of Tarts. I absolutely love the atmosphere here and the food is phenomenal! My favorite dinner place in Dublin is The Old Storehouse. I enjoy coming here to eat, b...
