10/06/14 - On 10/5/14 we made a trial run into downtown Savannah.  We did some shopping which including finding two styrofoam ice chests and ice since we were having problems with the ice maker. We defrosted the freezer and got all of the ice out and now the ice maker is working again.   We also did some laundry since the small laundry was empty.

Today we went to the dentist office and Aunt Esther is now all repaired and in good shape.  We then drove downtown to the river front area and it is beautiful because of the river walk that they have put in.  There are a lot of restaurants and shops along the river front.  We decided to eat at a restaurant named "The Cotton Exchange" which used to be an old cotton gin building.  They kept alot of the old brick of the building and it was really neat.  We got to sit upstairs by a window facing the river and saw a large freighter leave.  That was really interesting.  We then did some walking, a little shopping and ended the evening with an ice cream.  While sitting on a bench, another huge freighter came down the river. It was just amazing.  It was a lovely evening.  Not to hot and not to cold with a beautiful sunset over the river.  Pictures attached: I am not sure what I am doing wrong but it will not let me write under the picture so will explain here.  This was our appetizer - green fried tomatoes and they were delicious.
