After a relaxing breakfast with Bill and Debbie and doing laundry, we set out for Charleston.
Fortunately, the weather is still good and the traveling down I-85. There were a number of places along the highway where different wildflowers were in bloom, mostly orange poppies and white daisies but also some blue flowers that we couldn't identify.
We are staying at a Quality Inn in Mount Pleasant, just across the river / bay from Charleston.
We had a delicious dinner at Pearlz in the Charlestown French Quarter. Carmen had shrimp and grits which is a local specialty while I had a mixed grill with scallops, swordfish, mahi-mahi and monkfish over risotto which was very good. Afterwards we walked around the French Quarter to see some of the historic buildings and churches. Some of the streets are paved with rounded cobblestones, not the rectangular cut stones.
