Day 58 of #BoxsterRoadTrip was an excursion to Charleston, South Carolina.
I am going to tell the day in pictures (pretty much). We left Hilton Head around 9:00 am and headed off to Charleston, SC. First stop in Charleston was at Drayton Hall, a house built in the “lowcountry”, that pre-dates the Revolutionary War! Even the “outhouse” was brick and followed the same symmetrical architecture (and had a fireplace!).
Next we went to Fort Moultrie, a fort that also pre-dates the Revolutionary War (although this fort has been rebuilt a number of times). Notice that the flag has fifteen stripes!
In order to get to Fort Moultrie, we had to cross a rather large bridge called the Arthur Ravenel Jr Bridge. Jo knew this was coming, so she made sure Steve was driving. This bridge was a doozy!
Since we started the day in the lowcountry, we decided to end it there, so we went to A Lowcountry Backyard for dinner. Another great restaurant with very friendly folks working there! Jo managed to spill Steve’s drink (a Lemon Shine – effectively moonshine and lemonade) and they insisted on replacing it for him. We finished the meal off with a Banana Pudding, which we highly recommend!
A great end to a lovely (and exhausting) day.
The journey continues . . .
