Charleston Trip

Now is my chance to bore you with details of our trip to Charleston. Prepare to be bored. Actually, the beginning is a ton of details and the rest is a short synopis of our trip. Next, there is a picture to click on to take you to more pictures of our trip.

We wake up Friday morning about 4:45 and find some curious text messages on my phone about flight delays and one that asked if we are alive. We check flight delays/cancellations and proceed to the airport because we only gave ourselves 15 minutes to get ready in the morning. We didn't read any news headlines We hear awful news on the radio but turn it off right away for Tom Brady's sake. We board our plane only to see the wings caked in ice. They de-ice the plane (thankfully) for a looooonnnnnngggggg time. This means we arrive in Philadelphia late and we had to run and run and run and run to our next flight. We made it with seconds to spare. Once we arrived in Charleston, we waited for people to get off work and we went out to dinner where Tom Brady fell asleep in the booth at the pizza place. She doesn't normally do that but it was a long day. You can see a picture in our photo album.

Over the weekend, we went to the Children's museum of the Lowcountry. It was really small but neat. We really enjoyed the Castle, the Shrimp Boat and the Grocery Store.

We went to a fun place called Taco Boy for lunch one day. Afterward, we walked to the ocean and ran around on the pier. That was a lot of fun and we got to see some dolphins.

On Sunday, we headed to Fort Sumter in the Charleston Harbor. The weather seemed fine, but was butt cold once you got out near the water. Brrrrr. After Fort Sumter, we visited the Citadel staduim for Tom Brady. She thought it was nifty. Sunday night we met some friends of our friends and one of them made us dinner. Tom Brady met Laura who had fun talking about football and Labryinth.

Monday we went to Magnolia Gardens and Plantation. We almost had to give them Tom Brady for admission but we severed our arms and legs instead. It was really expensive but fun. This is where we went on a swamp tour and saw alligators. Monday night we went to dinner with Jenny, Justin and Paul. Tom Brady took a lot of pictures which you will see.

We had a really good time.
