Mardi finished packing this morning, so we're ready to go.
We said our goodbyes to Maureen and Matt and we were on our way. I don't know how many couples could spend a month together and still remain friends, but we've been pulling it off for many years. Thanks, M & M!
The traffic in Florida was much heavier than I expected for a Friday, and our 4.5 hour trip took over 6 hours. We had occasional showers in Florida, but in Georgia it turned into a full blown rain.
Nevertheless, we still had time for our hop-on-hop-off trolley tour.
The rain mostly prevented good photos, but I took this one of Florence, the Flag Lady.
Apparently, Florence met a sailor and fell in love. He promised to return and she promised to wave a flag at every ship until she saw him. She kept her promise, but poor Florence died of a broken heart 44 years later - he never returned.
Our trolley driver was Miss Denise.
She kept us entertained the whole trip and was a fountain of knowledge. She also gives hugs.
We plan to return next year and take the tour in good weather when we can actually hop-on and hop-off and enjoy the sites that are pointed out.
We ate dinner at a Thai restaurant.

Tomorrow we see my girls. Looking forward to it!
Stay well.
