Adventures
On visiting Charleston.
This past weekend, we took a trip down to Charleston to visit my fiancé’s cousins, who just recently bought a house there. The weekend was hot and humid, but that didn’t stop us from taking to the streets and checking out all of the local spots.
We began our weekend with an incredibly delicious dinner, made for us when we arrived. Steak, broccoli, and corn made for an excellent meal! We spent the evening catching up and enjoying each other’s company.
On Saturday, we headed out for breakfast at a local cafe. Great coffee and even better pastries. Mine was seasoned with red pepper flakes, so of course I was happy! After breakfast, we wandered the streets, looking at all of the beautiful historic homes. We also saw dolphins coming up for air in the waterway, which was an incredible sight.
We stopped by the Fireproof Building and toured the museum within, where I acquired some cute stickers from the gift shop. Later, we swung by Fleet Landing for a late lunch/early dinner, and I thoroughly enjoyed my seafood pasta, and the beer brewed specifically for Fleet Landing. Afterwards, we toured the USCGC Eagle, then went back home to cool off. In the evening, we enjoyed some cigars, then took Sake on a stroll through the neighborhood.
On Sunday, we drove over to Folly Beach to enjoy the sun, the sand, and the surf. It was a great morning for the beach, and the water felt excellent. We hit up a local sandwich shop for lunch, and then went home to wash off the sand.
It wasn’t long after that, we said our goodbyes and drove back home. All-in-all, it was a great weekend with delicious food and incredible company.
What have y’all been up to lately?
