Charleston, South Carolina, August 2010

Our East Coast odyssey continued in Charleston, South Carolina, probably our favorite city of the whole trip. Here are Neil, Elaina & Seth on a bridge at the Magnolia Plantation.

Here's another shot of that bridge, one of the most scenic views on any southern plantation.

We got to do a river cruise at that plantation and saw lots of wildlife, including this great blue heron.

Elaina also got to chase a peacock at the plantation.

We got a gorgeous shot of the pier in Charleston, flanked by colorful sailboats with their jibs up.

Next are single houses with their harbor=facing balconies. These houses are characteristic of Charleston.

You see mule-drawn carriages everywhere in Charleston. We even got to ride in one.

Finally, we see some old tombstones in a graveyard. Cemeteries aren't in church yards, but graveyards are. That is the difference between the two.
