Charleston, South Carolina

Charleston, another quintessential southern coastal town steeped in history. It’s well preserved architecture, painted in colorful hues, can be enjoyed walking along palm lined streets. Charleston is famed for it’s southern hospitality, however, after leaving Savannah, it felt lacking. We had planned to visit Asheville, NC on our return home, but those plans changed due to weather and we spent an extra night in Charleston. Charleston is home to five beaches, but after spending close to a year on the Oregon coast, the coastline seemed rather boring with it’s lack of mountains and trees. Perhaps I’m getting a bit spoiled! We stumbled upon a wonderfully overgrown cemetery tucked behind a Unitarian church downtown, a peaceful oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of all the commerce.
