Bonaventure, a set on Flickr.
I absolutely love Savannah.
It reminds me so much of my home, New Orleans. One of my favorite places in Savannah is Bonaventure
Cemetery.
During a recent visit, I had the pleasure of experiencing
Bonaventure Journey’s Tour with Shannon Scott. It was one of my best tours EVER!
Being an avid reader who loves history and details, I often
find myself a bit disappointed with tours.
Not so with Shannon, his tour was engaging, informative, and full of
details. His delivery was full of wit
and charm. Another plus, at least for
me, it was a small group AND it was after hours. No crowds mean great photos sans tourists, and time for
questions, yay!
The saying, “Here in the south, we don't hide crazy. We
parade it on the front porch and give it a cocktail,” came to mind as I
listened to stories of the infamous Savannahians who lay to rest at
Bonaventure. Midnight in the Garden
of Good and Evil lovers are in for a treat, too, but I won't spoil the
surprise.
If you loved the storytelling in the movie Big Fish,
you will adore Bonaventure Journey’s Tour with Shannon Scott. Cheers ;-)
