Lucky number seven, we are ENGAGED!
Posted by admin on January 13th, 2008
After seven long years of putting up with each other, we finally got engaged on our anniversary in Savannah Georgia. Levi’s original plan was to propose to me in the garden from “Midnight in the The Garden of Good and Evil” but after taking one of the scariest ghost tours of our lives, the tour guide said if you you go int the garden after midnight the cops will either kick you out or you will get harrassed by bums. So with that being said, Levi popped the question on the bench in front of Clarey’s Cafe (also in the movie and serves up the best sweet tea in Savannah). So now we have our very own bench to go back to!
We stayed in the Planters Inn which is one of the few buildings in the city that survived the fires and was said to have been a brothel at one point and extremely haunted. We had our anniversary dinner at the Olde Pink House which is right next door to the Inn and we spent a lovely saturday walking up and down the streets and through the many courtyards that fill downtown Savannah. Another favorite of ours and a must upon return is Vic’s on the River. Excellent food at a great price, great view of the bay and a charming madame on the piano… can’t beat it. It felt like a scene right out of a movie.
Another place we will have to visit again is the @Home Store, on main street. Marisa was in love with this store as you can tell and I think it fell in love with my wallet. But I must admit, they had really cool design / antique things for reasonable prices. We also went by the SCAD shop which was supposed to be all student work but I saw a lot of stuff that I had seen online before. Prices not so good.
