Savannah

We chose Savannah for our half marathon for several reasons: it's flat, it has perfect weather in November, and the city is beautiful.

On race day we had to wake up at 4:15AM in order to get to our parking spot before the roads were closed off... so by that afternoon we were pretty exhausted. We took a quick nap and then hit River Street Saturday night for a few beers, some pralines, and a delicious dinner after all of those calories we burned off.



We had dinner at Fiddler's Crab House on River Street, and we ate on the porch so we could overlook the river. The atmosphere down there is just so much fun.



 I had some shrimp and grits, which were: to. die. for.


and after dinner we went to "World of Beer".... hello my new favorite bar. 
I'm a beer girl, and this place blew my mind with the amount of beer they have on tap and on the menu.
My word.
They even do beer cocktails... it was an excellent reward after all of that running!


That sums up the rest of our Saturday in Savannah... now I'm dying to go back. I would kill for a few more pralines right about now. This time change has killed me this week!

Happy Friday friends!!

I think I'm about to shock all your southern sensibilities. Ready? I've never had grits. Don't even know what they are. :) Glad you had a fun time!
