Charleston - Part 2

So, where did we leave off? Oh, yes, I believe it was at Day 3. To make this easier for ya'll, I'll try to make this post about Charleston more brief. I just hate the thought of boring ya'll.

Let me give you the nutshell version to conclude and then you can look at the pictures. On Day 3 we went back to the historic district. We just wandered around and looked at all the beautiful places. We walked the promenade - which is two hoops wide. For those of you who might wonder what that means - it was built to accomodate two ladies in hoop skirts to be able to walk side by side - i.e. two hoops wide. Is that cool or what?
Then, we rested at The Battery and watched the CBS people set up for the live broadcast of the CBS Morning Show on that Friday. No, I didn't see Harry Smith, but he was there somewhere.

Then, on Day 4 we went to Boone Hall Plantation. This is where the tv miniseries North and South was filmed, also, the miniseries Queen with Hallie Berry and The Notebook. If you have seen any of these movies, then you've seen Boone Hall. Check it out here for more info.

On Day 5, we stayed at the hotel and enjoyed the pool. It was fun to just sit and do nothing but soak up the sun and cool off in the pool. I read a book I picked up in Charleston - The Belles of Charleston. How fitting, wouldn't you agree?

So, there is the nutshell version. I just want to say that I give our loving God such praise for allowing us the time to spend together as a family. How precious it is to be able to be with the two guys I love most in this world in a beautiful place like Charleston. Also, I thank God for blessing us with His travel mercies.We travelled to and from Charleston in absolute safety and comfort. I love Him so much.

And, here are the pictures.





Blessings, Lisa!
