DECEMBER 5, 2006----------
On our way back home from New Orleans, we decided to spend the night in Macon, Georgia, 
a city we'd never visited before. We took the historic city bus tour and we impressed with all the antebellum mansions in the historic district neighborhood.
a city we'd never visited before. We took the historic city bus tour and we impressed with all the antebellum mansions in the historic district neighborhood.We were especially enchanted with the 1842 Inn, a gorgeous antebellum mansion B&B located in the heart of the historic neighborhood. I should explain that although we stayed one night in Macon, we did NOT stay at the 1842 Inn on this trip.
We did go inside to get information on staying there in the future and were invited to look around at our leisure. We took lots of pictures both inside and outside around the property. Each room was
beautifully furnished in period pieces and accessories - quite lovely. I could imagine sitting in one of the parlors all day sipping on a cup of tea while reading a book - oblivious to what was going on around me.

We are planning to return to Macon for the Cherry Blossom Festival held on March 16-17, 2007. If we go to the festival, we'll be sure to stay at the 1842 Inn.
