Anyway... The one everyone is really here to hear from. The Traveling Karr
Greetings Minions...
This trip is an odd one in that it actually started before ever leaving. Not much sleep was to be had as Russell and the writer's brother decided to shanghi the living room and watch a movie that I found most enjoyable for a movie that included no vehicular manslaughter. Apollo 13.
So this should probably forecast the rest of the trip maybe? Crawled out of bed at 6 a.m. Way to early in the flippin' morning if you ask me...
Set out on the road not to long after that and hit the road for Savannah. Just a tip? No if you are going from Waynesboro to Savannah you do not need to get on I-95. Apparently Maji's thoughts were on Jacksonville and a cruise ship.
Got to the beach at about 9 in the morning. It was very nice but for the sand... And the salt water... and the fish... and the people... Alright let me point something out right here. Every time we go to the beach we are all reminded of just how much we all hate the beach. Personally I hated getting sand on me and refused to get off the beach chair.
Maji decided getting in the water might be fun. The problem being the fish... Yes fish. Little fish just a bit longer than a human's hand were jumping out of the water. Absolutely everywhere! Dozens of them. Has anyone else been to Tybee Island? Is this common?
Anyway Maji felt one hit her leg and then bite her therefore for a while she was out of the water. However, that did not last long as she then seemed to forget the fish and got back in the water. This event made the entire trip enjoyable. A fish jumped out of the water and hit her in the face! I kid you not. I laughed so hard if I were human I would have soiled myself. This was a truly amazing event and when I rule the world I believe I will have to remember this and throw fish at her often. I do not believe I will ever tire of that.
We left the beach about eleven and Maji stopped in a real-estate office where the realtor was rather rude. When broached with the topic of commercial real-estate this woman laughed and told us good luck. Well then...
We left there and stopped for lunch at Applebees which had the most amazing fried shrimp. Maji wanted local sea food but was afraid of getting food poisoning from some of the dives located along the beach.
From there we decided to go down to River Street... Where we drove around for two hours looking for parking!
We finally found parking in a hotel parking garage that was also offering public parking. I might also add those were very narrow streets... I was nervous at times... Maji's driving frightens me...
River Street was interesting, though there were people driving on it which truly threw me off a bit. You are not allowed to drive on the Augusta River Walk. Though Maji truly had fun with it.
From there we took a Trolly ride and I must say. If you are in the area and want to see everything, take the Trolly. Take the Trolly with Hollywood. Hollywood was part tour guide and part comedian. I rather enjoyed the tour. It's also good to know the lay of the land that I will one day rule.
We decided soon after that to head home and I am very proud of Maji. For the first time she left Savannah and did not get lost once! Now that was truly amazing.
As always minions, if you see us... Make sure to say hello. I am badgering the writer to get creative and create T-shirts for us.
Until next time...
Karr
