Savannah Touring and Mrs Wilkes Chicken



Went to Savannah to eat at Mrs. Wilkes Boarding house - they serve 80 at a time and are open for brunch from 11-2PM - it is served sit down buffet style with all the fixings on the table when you're seated with 6 others. Then you pass the various bowls of stuff - the list would take way too long to list everything but the hit of the meal were the chicken. It was the best we've ever eaten - and plenty of it. 
After the meal, we waddled out and then did the El Tourista thang and hopped aboard the tour bus for the city - 15 stops and hop on and off at any of them. So we spent the afternoon playing as Bobbie Gump (see below) and ice creams to ward off the heat (93) and the coldest beers we could find. Quite a city Savannah!

Some of the dishes that were offered - they are all different

The wait staff at Mrs Wilkes - man are they right!

ONe of the tankers that were heading down the Savannah River - almost close enough to touch
