We decided to visit one more plantation villa before we left, we turned North towards Rosedown plantation's beautiful grounds to take a tour of it's restored home and grounds.
Ami was lured by the romantic buildings and amazing gardens to the point we splurged on another night in southern luxury. We found a half price deal just down the river at Nottoway plantation, a massive home turned hotel/museum straight out of Gone with the wind.
We got the historic tour during the afternoon then as the visitors cleared out we had the museum to ourselves, left inside a trapped piece of history, with our own massive room complete with four post bed, a refreshing mint julep and view of the Mississippi.
Ami got dressed-up and we walked the empty grounds at night; a white stallion could have majestically galloped through the live oak trees and swept her away and I wouldn't have been surprised in the slightest. We felt like two high society characters straight out of the 1800s cotton boom, the charm of the south had finally reached our cores.
