Fall Fun in Savannah

Back to one of my favorite places, Savannah.


This time I took my mom with me so she could see what all the fuss is about. We got up bright and early so we could eat at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room. We got there around 11 and it was wrapped around the corner already. This is the longest I have ever waited in line to eat here, but once again was so worth it! My mom loved it and I was glad to share this with her. We left their miserable full and decided to walk around a bit.



There are some really cute boutiques around the area where Mrs. Wilkes is located. My favorite shop is One Fish, Two Fish. They always have the cutest things,  but my new favorite might be The Paris Market. I am absolutely obsessed with everything in there. We checked another cute store next door called, La Paperie. They carry Kate Spade paper goods, desk accessories and holiday goodies. My mom picked me up a super Kate Spade travel mug and I got a new book: A Savannah Christmas; Interiors and Traditions from the Low Country. I love it!


After this we moved the vehicle a bit closer to River Street. We wandered around Broughton, Market Square and River Street. After time spent out and about we went to the bar area under The Olde Pink House for a Pink Lady and to enjoy the fire.





After what felt like such a long day we headed back to our super cute Airbnb near Forsyth Park. It was such a lovely first day in Savannah with my mom!

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...
