... elegance enable you to truly escape the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Once you're on Kiawah, it's easy to forget that you haven't traveled all that far because it feels like a world unto itself. The only reason to go "off-island" is to explore the beautiful and historic port city of Charleston, S.C. just down the ...

... Then we picked up a bottle of wine to drink on our anniversary, and went back to the hotel room.<br> Our hotel was in Charleston's Historical District. It was really beautiful, and our sixth floor balcony gave us an amazing view of the city. <br>

... be the next mayor of Edisto Beach if he decided to run. I even volunteered to act as campaign manager (free room and board) when I get back.<br><br>The following day it rained and our golf plans were cancelled. Jazzman is one of few people I could spend a rainy day with and have a good time. First Generation Nintendo, Yahtzee and some beer made for a great day. Another free dinner and drinks on the town after that. A great start to the trip...I will be back.

... guessed) $20, to which he said he has 5 brothers to take with him!!!! I said i couldn't help and didn't have that money with me, to which he replied that there was a cash machine around the corner and he promised his sister would pay me back as soon as we arrived. By this time I'm sure this is a scam, so said i couldn't &amp; wouldn't help him anymore than $20. Anyway he vanished for 20Min's then i could see him outside with a load of other people that he knew (fellow scammers). He then ...

... mainly churches, big houses, and MACK trucks). Driving 7 hours with a European seemed more like driving with an impatient child, "are we there yet? Omg how long is this going to take?!?" I forgive him, because I must admit, after the 5th hour I was starting to get agitated in my seat.<br><br>Being always conscious of my speed, in addition to driving an unfamiliar car, I stumbled upon the cruise controls in hope of making our ride easier. The idea of ...

... we were there....with no idea about what transpired in 1863. (The pictures with the lighthouse once stood Ft.Wagner. The fort the 54th or any union regiment could ever take.)<br><br>We took a cruise around the harbor, checked out Ft. Sumter( the base in the middle of the bay), and cooked in the sun. Afterwards we went and celebrated the new college kids ...

... recently interviewed both Judith and Frank on the South Carolina Business Review radio show. First stop was the cookie factory (where I forget to take pictures so I pulled a few from their web site). Judith started this in her home kitchen and now has a 4000 sq. ft. bakery and warehouse, shipping cookies all over the world. We ...

... hard to navigate. We don't even know that we're in town half the time. I told Ellen; "Hey, we're in Tallahassee." She replied, "Where?" We never really did find it even though we drove right through it. We're also used to seeing some landmarks, any landmarks. Fortunately for us, both Savannah and Charleston take their histories, restoration and tourism very seriously and it shows in their front line hosts. Anyone in ...

... of the ship had a distinctly piratey feel. I had met some of the crew at the reception the previous night so I got to have to full, below decks tour and really see the ship. Some would say she has more character than the Prince William, others might say less hygiene, either way she was still a beautiful ship and far more traditionally set up. That night we had our own small reception on board and got to meet the crews of some of the American schooners. For those of ...

... in fine shape to just sit back and be entertained, we left to find the Old South Carriage Company. There are several carriage companies in the downtown area and I supposed all are very good. We certainly received an excellent tour from this company and anyone visiting Charleston should make time to hear their presentation. We were told that Charleston was founded in 1670 by the British and Charles Towne soon received a band of French Huguenots (French Protestants) who ...
