Anniversary Vacation - Day 3


Day 3: We had to say good bye to Hilton Head, South Carolina on day 3. Hilton Head, we will miss your relaxing swings, beautiful beaches and lovely weather. We hope to see you again soon!

Our next stop was Atlanta, Georgia. It took us about 5 1/2 hours to drive from Hilton Head, SC to Atlanta, GA. We hit some unexpected traffic out in the middle of interstate 16 and also some heavy thunderstorms. These thunderstorms were pretty vicious. In fact, most people pulled over to the side of the road to wait it out. John and I chose to drive cautiously through the rain. Both of us are used to driving in heavy rain - we live in central Florida!

Our destination that evening was Ray's in the City, an upscale restaurant that my sweet husband found and made reservations for. This was our "anniversary dinner" and our present to each other. Ray's in the City is known for their seafood and everything is made fresh by the chef himself. I had crab cakes with a delicious mustardy sauce served with green beans and mashed potatoes. John had corn crusted Georgia mountain trout - the best fish meal he's ever had, he says. It was pretty spectacular! We had so much fun getting dressed up and eating at a fancy restaurant. Thanks darling, for making that such a special evening!
