We have arrived at our destination! The Isle of Palms in South Carolina! I took a picture of the GPS because I think it's so cool how one second you only see land and then all of a sudden BLUE! Meaning, the next piece of land is miles and miles and MILES from where we are now! It's so fascinating!
Andrew and I left Asheville at 8AM this morning, and of course had to stop at Krispie Kreme for breakfast. We arrived at the Isle of Palms around 12:45PM! We were about 3 hours early for check in time so we had to wander for a while. We went shopping and checked out a local coffee shop before checking into our hotel. Once we checked in we headed straight for the beach! The ocean is just gorgeous and very relaxing. However, the weather is kind of crummy with lots of clouds and rain which meant we didn't get to go swimming today. Our hope is that the weather will be better tomorrow for laying on the beach and swimming!
Since it was rainy we decided to go to downtown Charleston to check out the Market and find some dinner. We ate at a lovely Italian place that had live Jazz (very cool)! Afterward we wandered the shops and then headed back to the hotel to relax for the night. It was very cool heading into Charleston because we got to drive over the huge bridge that goes over the harbor! Unfortunately, when going over the bridge you can't get a good view out over the side so I got what I could while going up the bridge and then (of course) the GPS with all the water surrounding us! Check out the pictures from today!
