VIRGINIA BEACH- Making it Great

Look at these pictures!

You'd never guess it's Virginia Beach

This is the Hilton right in the heart of Virginia Beach

 

Two of my best friends from Richmond and I had the luxury of staying here for a quick vacation and it was magnificent 

 

Here's proof it's Virginia Beach

The hotel is fairly close to King Neptune on the Boardwalk 

 

The Hilton is modern inside and it's fairly new

Compared to your other options on the Boardwalk, it's truly a gem! Trust me! 

 

There are plenty of places to eat at the hotel and walking distance from your room! Keep in mind, Hilton is right where everything is happening, too! Concerts, bars, all walking distance 

 

The food ? Delicious! 

 

Here's the secret to the pool... it's small but amazing 

Get up early, yes you lazy bums, and secure this little spot of heaven! It's the only secluded little corner that has the city, beach and pool view! Plus it's just these four cushy comfy beds cornered off! 

TRUST ME!

You will not regret it!

 

I would go back just to have these four beds again!

SAVANNAH- Historic Downtown

Historic Downtown

Savannah, Georgia

What a beautiful fall day it was in Savannah!

We spent our time in Savannah touring the historic district and admiring all the beautiful trolleys for tours and ghost tours! They do have public trolleys that are free if you'd rather take that! We chose to walk everywhere because it was such a beautiful Fall October Day!

Cubby loved all the fountains that center the squares!

The beautiful trees and oak lined roads are absolutely stunning, as well as the old churches!

 

We loved all the squares and neighborhoods, particularly the famous Jones Street!

 Mike found a home he wanted to buy about a block away. The pineapples were adorable! 

City Market

Savannah, Georgia

 

Want AMAZING Pizza? Limitless Candy? People Watching?

City Market Savannah has you covered

From boutiques to local galleries, Savannah's City Market is for kids of all ages

 

There are bars and delicious places to eat!

Try Vinnie Van Go Go's!

You'll be paying in wait time for sure, but the pizza is worth it!

Afterwards, why not try a sample of delicious candy?

If samples are not good enough for you, you can buy cases and cases of delicious candies from chocolate covered apples to chocolate covered pretzels!

and if your sweet tooth takes you in to a more hard candy form- try this wall of candy!

 

What a fun night, even with the kiddos!

Savannah's City Market is kid friendly, even after dinner hours!

There are groups of people from all walks of life- from families, tourists, couples and even those who want to enjoy the nightlife!

CHARLESTON- Battery Row

Battery Row

Charleston, South Carolina

It's a little street on the water... with million dollar mansions

and cute little crabs in the sand!

We are talking about Battery Row in Downtown Charleston

A Southern Charm, for sure!

The houses are gorgeous... and colorful on Rainbow Row!

There are old southern style cobblestorne roads

The homes are perfectly manicured

Businesses are breathtaking!

 

With the water- right there- it's a great place to go for a morning run or walk your dog

But unless you are a member of the exclusive yacht clubs or live in one of the mansions, you definitely feel like a tourist (which we were!)

It was nice to see so many locals running and taking their dogs to a local park- which pretty much became a dog park!
