Walk with Me thru Charleston SC...Part 1

I adore Charleston.....it only took me about 30 seconds once I got into town to realize I would never be the same......upon leaving, I would always be planning my next visit. Lucky for us it is only a 3 hour trip away so Russ and I decided to spend Easter Sunday there and I thought you might like to take a "walk with me around town" and let me share with you some of the things I love about Charleston.......................The Pier is wonderful and HUGE!! The best part is ..... this is where I would ALWAYS see dolphins. If one of the swings is available, take a load off and r-e-l-a-x!
COLOR.......it is EVERYWHERE in Charleston

COBBLESTONE STREETS.................



CEMETARIES.....holy cow are they OLD and very interesting. The carving on the stones are amazing. My favorites are in the Circular Church graveyard. SOme date back as far as late 1700's....maybe even longer...................



Charleston is definitly a DOG lovin place....as evidenced here. This is a concrete bunny statue that was sitting at the end of someones sidewalk in their yard. Is that the cutest thing????
Continue on to part 2 and 3............................ Make sure you keep scrolling!!! I did this all in three separate posts today so it's all here together....ENJOY!!

    Oh I love Charleston!!! I was in that graveyard also. The most amazing artwork on those headstones. I love the streets, & hope to visit there again this year. Did you take a horse & buggy ride? Looking forward to the other pics.
