Savannah, Georgia Cruise Port

• The mother church of Savannah's Roman Catholic Diocese, the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist was built in 1873; its interior decoration took an extra 13 years. While it's lovely from the outside, the massive inside is especially beautiful, thanks to the stained glass windows and immense pipe organ.
   
• At the edge of the Historic District is Forsyth Park, highlighted by a fantastic fountain trees draped in Spanish moss. It's an excellent place to sit for a spell, relax, and people-watch; you might even come across an artist (or several) displaying their wares.
   
• For more of Savannah's unique atmosphere, visit Bonaventure Cemetery. There are several southern people of note buried here among the artful stones and statues, such as musician Johnny Mercer and writer Conrad Aiken. Its website describes the cemetery as "Where Death and Beauty Meet," and that's an apt statement indeed.
   
• Anyone who knows anything about Savannah is aware it's supposedly very haunted. So finding a ghost tour is no difficult task here; there are guides here to expose you to the paranormal in the cemetery, on a pub crawl, on a tour by trolley, and, of course, by candlelight (if you're there after dark).
