Wandering the historic district and stopping to smell the roses |
We saw a great deal on JetBlue and decided to go in mid-September before school started. It was still pretty hot when we went, but usually fall is a great time to visit the South since the humidity and heat are gone.
Charleston's got a food scene, history, beauty, nice weather much of the year and it's a very cute, sweet city. It was great with the kids. Highly recommend!
Here's our photo review...

Love seeing old courtyards. Feels tres European |
 |
Super cute inn that we stayed at one night. It was right in the middle of the historic district and next to Husk |
 |
Courtyard of the Elliott House Inn, where we stayed one night |
 |
Our Elliott House Inn room looked out at Husk. No lines yet...run! |
 |
Husk was THE restaurant I wanted to try in Charleston. Shrimp and Grits, bacony cornbread, local IPA...all thumbs up |
 |
Still don't know how to use the joggling board. This one was at Husk, but they're all over town |
 |
Riding the free trolley to get the lay of the land in the historic district |
 |
Spanish Moss |
 |
Jumping around Charleston's Waterfront Park |
 |
Strolling around here makes you want a sweet tea |
 |
The marshes of Charleston's waterfront |
 |
Love that the water features all encourage you to wade in |
Black Tap Coffee right outside the historic district...got that New York vibe going on
 |
The airbnb we rented had a fenced-in backyard and a pecan tree |
 |
This was a good airbnb house! |
Here's where we stayed for our other two nights in Charleston. It was nice to stay in the historic district as well as in the cute Brooklyn-ish area where the airbnb house was.

Pecans from the pecan tree |
Super cute
Hazel Parker playground gave our kids a break to run around. In the historic district.
 |
Leon's was great for lunch! |
 |
Sugar Bakery. Yas, queen. |
 |
Indigo & Cotton men's store. Are we in New York? |
 |
Tiny scene of independent shops, but you can see it's growing |
 |
Another joggling board. How do you use this thing? |
 |
Hominy Grill...Oh, yes. |
 |
How this New Yorker thinks you're supposed to eat hush puppies |
 |
Tried to take it on the plane home, but was denied. Oh, well. |
 |
Reminds me of the summer camp I went to in Asheville, North Carolina |
 |
Charleston: Not exactly Compton |
