Savannah and Paula Dean and more Paula Dean and more .......

Hi Y'all

I'm sure if we stayed here another week that's how I'd be talking just to be understood y'all, I've tried my patrios but that was worse than my aussie accent y'hear!

So yesterday we did the big tourist thing and went on a historic bus tour of Savannah which was very good as /savannah has some stunning old homes.

All was well until we got off the tour at River Street and Tessa asked me to get a photo of the Riverboat that was travelling fast down the river. There was also a suggestion thst I should stand on the wall over the road to get a better picture. Being the ever obedient husband that I am (stop laughing), I raced across the cobblestone road dogging traffic and tripped on some old trolley car lines (read Melbourne tram lines for aussie readers) and apparently performed a western role that professional Hollywood stunt men only dream about!

Well I don't want any of you to worry as my hands and knees will most likley heal in due course, but I desperately need to find somewhere that offers instant camera repairs to tourists on the go. Sounds like a job for Yellow Pages!

Today was much better I only tripped twice but didn't fall once, see that's proof that practice does makes perfect.

Speaking of today we combined the Savannah thing with the "Tessa Thing" and her "Food Network Pin Up Gal", Paula Dean. Therefore today was another bus tour "The Paula Dean Tour" which was the history of her rags to riches story, and...... guess what the VIP gift was just for taking the tour? You guessed it all tour participants recieved a special telephone number to make a reservation for her "Lady& Sons" restaurant. You see they don't take telephone reservations for tables of less than 10 people, so we were so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky to obtain a dinner reservation for two. I said to the reservstion chick "let Paula know that Tessa will be there for dinner tonight". Bloody stuck up bitch didn't show, that's Paula not Tessa!

So tomorrow it's on the road again and golf at Myrtle Beach, y'see every cloud has a silver lining.

So y'all enjoy your day an come back an see us sometime y'hear.
David & Tessa
