Leaving Florida and Savannah

Well today we left Florida, and I can now add a new state to the list of ones I have visited, Georgia! We drove for a long while through Georgia and have now reached Savannah, which is actually where the park in "Forrest Gump" is, that part of the movie was not filmed in Alabama. The park bench that Forrest sits on is not even a real park bench, nor is there one where the park actually is, however there is a replica in the visitors center.

On our way out of Florida, we stopped in the town of St. Augustine, the oldest town in the entire United States of America, originally settled by the Spanish. We visited the Fort there which was still fairly well preserved, and had a short look around the old part of the town, before heading on out of Florida and into Georgia. We're going on to Atlanta tomorrow, where we'll go to "The world of Coca-Cola", which should be very fun, and give me quite a sore stomach.
