Charleston

And so, out to Nashville Airport and a 90 minute flight to Charleston, South Carolina. A turbulent flight, as we flew through a front. However, we landed safely and settled in to our hotel, the Homewood Suites. We dined at an Italian restaurant, Mario’s, recommended by the receptionist.
Went for a wander in the local area after dinner. Very warm with light showers, and we liked what we saw.

The next morning, we had booked a Walking Tour with a history commentary from our guide. He was particularly knowledgeable, and a forceful personality. We found it most worthwhile. Had a good walk around the historical area of town, which is very walkable. It is certainly warm .. probably early 30’s, but not uncomfortable.

Dinner was at Virginia’s on King, which was wholesome food in a nice, friendly environment. There happened to be a live music event in Marian Square next door, so after a wander around Charleston College, we sat on the grass to watch. A local singer on keyboard, with a drummer to accompany. Very polished.

Tomorrow, New Orleans, or as the locals say, Noo Awlins.
