on "vacay"

so much to blog about, i just don't know where to start!
the aquarium was AWESOME!!!
i mean walking under 6.2 million litres (or it may have been gallons) of water which housed 2 whale sharks and a whole host of other animals was really cool, I've got a massive pile of pictures to wade through (140 ish i think) but Lindsey has posted a couple of the already, including one she took of me and her nephew that she thinks is "too cute". For more on our trip it's best to have a look at her page
there was so much there though that i just couldn't stop taking pictures, i think she probably thinks i'm a little weird because of it...i took a pile more over the last couple of days while we've been in Savannah.
speaking of which, we saw the park that tom hanks sits in front of while telling forrest gump's story, although the bench has now been removed and put in the tourist office (where they'll charge you $4 to see it, but you can't touch it, sit on it or take pictures of it, but they will sell you pictures of it). and had a long old wander around the river and bay street areas of the city.
Those of you who really know me, know that i have a dry sense of humour and if i can get away with someting i'll do it...like walking around the aquarium with a t-shirt depicting a fish that's written "smart arse" out of his backside...(i did this because someone, ok it was linsdey, picked the shirt out because she thought it was funny and suited me). anyway I have a t-shirt that has "sinner" emblazoned across the from of it. i was wearing this shirt when we arrived in Savannah, to me it's no different to the pornstar t-shirt or thundercats t-shirts that i have, i wera it because i like it. well we went into a restaurant to get some lunch when the waitress took notice of my t-shirt and kept asking what it meant and what religion i was and all that kind of stuff. she scared me! so much so that when we checked into the hotel, i went and changed into a thundercats one...she was WEIRD!!!!
normally this kind of thing doesn't bother me, but she really did, she wouldn't let up about the shirt...i wore it again today though as we left and no-one else took a blind bit of notice of it, so it's not like i was being offensive (which is that main reason i wanted to change, i don't like offending people)
but savannah was really pretty, i took another 40 or 50 pictures, some of really random things, while we were there, adding to the thought that lindsey may think i've got a weird photo fetish (although she assures me she doesn't think this).
we went on a horse and buggy tour of the city just as it got dark last night and found out loads about the haunted areas of the city and all the interesting little stories that are behind the ghosts, including about one guy who locks women in the bathroom of one of the taverns. the tour was good fun and the guide was entertaining and kept it interesting.
so i have all these pictures that i'll be posting when i get home, so miss ash doesn't need to panic anymore, there will be some soon enough ;) i just want to go through them all and make sure that i'm not going to bore you with them...
I'm not sure what we're going to do the next couple of days, there's a couple of things in the pipeline, but we'll have to wait and see what crops up

not looking forward to leaving, although i've picked up a little of the southern drawl when i talk at times. and i'm already thinking ahead and wondering how long it'll take me to save up and come back...

pictures as soon as i get back to the uk
