tourism



Its not often that I get to be a tourist in my own town, but I always love the opportunity. Since my sister was just here visiting, we got to do some things we don't usually make time for - it was so fun! We didn't go crazy with a carriage ride, or a trolley tour, but we did take our time wandering around this historic town, soaking up the architecture, blooming flowers, stroll through the park, and window shop in all the stores I always drive past. There is so much to see and do!





It was such a treat to slow down and enjoy what is constantly going on all around me. Matt and I rarely spend our days lazing around downtown, but its such a fun past time! I guess that's part of the perk of having guests, taking them on mini tours around town, you get to be a part of the tourist scene yourself.


Do you ever explore your city like a tourist would? Camera and all? I was shameless this last time, taking pictures of everything. It's so fun to discover the new [and old] things that are happening.

Do you ever stop to enjoy your city as a tourist? Go to the stores or attractions you don't normally stop for?This little town is a lot of fun, especially when its 80 and sunny - that's my idea of a weekend. Also, I was inspired by my sister to do a post about the front stoops of historical places in Savannah. I think that sounds like a lot of fun, look for more of that soon!
