America's Most Haunted City

Today began with a walk around Savannah where we stopped in at the beautiful Cathedral of St. John the Baptist.  Construction was begun in 1873 and was completed with the addition of the spires in 1896.  The interior stained glass and intricate architecture are really beautiful.  We then toured the Owens Thomas House, North America's preeminent example of periiod English Regency architecture. We also visited ForsythPark as well as the Georgia State Railroad Museum. 

We walked down River Street  where we took in the sites and sampled some praline pecans, had drinks at one of the bars along the river, then we headed to The Olde Pink House for dinner.  The Olde Pink House is said to be a Savannah dining institution that serves low country cuisine like crispy flounder with grits and collardgreens, and apparently is also haunted.  In fact Savannah is said to be the most haunted city in America due to the fact homes and buildings sit atop Native American burial grounds and forgotten cemeteries of slaves and colonialists.
