Charleston to St. Augustine on a Sporty

Description

Heading out of Charleston I took SC-17 headed south towards Savannah. Savannah is a great town to swing through to stretch your legs and grab a bite to eat with many dining options that surround the historic squares there. One square in particular put Savannah on the map worldwide gracing the silver screen with a gentleman waiting at a bus stop.

Chippewa Square was the filming location for the famous bus stop narration and scene in the 1994 film Forrest Gump. While there isn’t actually a bus stop there and the one used in the movie was a set placed in the middle of the road in front of Chippewa Square, you can see the square and then head over to the Savannah History Museum a few blocks away to see the infamous bench used in the movie on display. Watch it all on this episode.
