Distance travelled from Charleston to Savannah: 189 kms (117.4 miles)
Total distance driven so far (includes in-city driving): 2,070.9 kms (1, 286.8 miles)
Pretty happy with the average gas consumption from Oakville, ON to Savannah, GA: 23.9 litres per 100 km. The budget is based on 25 litres per 100 km – a good figure to use based on the amount of towing expected. Also gas prices in the US are lower than Canada. $1.20 per litre for the last fill up in Canada vs. approx. 94 cents per litre in the US.
Arrived in Savannah at about 2 pm. What an amazing place to visit! Thanks to all the people that gave us this suggestion for our itinerary.
The Visitor’s Info Ctr was our first stop where we scoped out a 3 hour walking tour through many squares, the main historic district and along the waterfront.
One of many beautiful tree lined streets. We love this place!!!
These steps look great...

Sailing adventure about to start at Savannah's water front
Marianna stretches after a long night's sleep in the visitor center parking lot - right in the heart of Savannah!
Marianna stands in awe of the moat - Fort Pulaski was one of the only forts we visited that actually had water in the moat.
Damage from the Civil War. Union soldiers took the fort in record time using new rifled cannons.
Cannon projectile remains embedded in the wall.
Jason & Marianna in front of a cannon port hole.
Jason reads about the fort's foundation - wood pilings sunk into mud.
