Det börjar alltid i september, med en Caffè Nero-sesh med Lonely Planet. Därefter brukar jag leta efter böcker och filmer som utspelar sig på det tänkta resmålet, men i det här fallet kom hela residén från romanen 'Nightwoods' i somras.
Den här var en bra kompanjon längs Georgias och South Carolinas landsvägar; Atlanta, Macon, Hilton Head Island, Savannah, Tybee Island, Beaufort, Augusta, Athens... Som vanligt önskar jag fler texter om mentaliteten i regionen och färre om logi och restauranger. Alla Trump-skyltar i folks trädgårdar talade sitt tydliga språk, även om det fanns enstaka undantag.
Inte ett ord om Juliette, GA, med Stekta Gröna Tomater-caféet, men Poe's Tavern i Savannah finns med, har jag för mig, liksom musikscenen i Athens, GA med B-52's och R.E.M. Tackar också för boktipset 'Beach Music'.

This book is a bit out of date and covers more than Georgia. I was more interested in Atlanta but does not have enough information on hotel choices and restaurant reviews, and seems to be missing some key features of Atlanta. With that I was still able to learn about what to see around MLK’s birthplace and some other sites to see if I have extra time for site seeing.

The perfect guide to Georgia and the Carolinas! Literally everything I could possibly want from a travel guide. Lonely Planet loves storytelling and sharing culture, and the Storybook section at the end is a perfect example of that.

Read most of the book, but the tips for Savannah for Families was amazing. My kids had the best time. Some time soon I want to go back to Savannah for a grownups only trip!
