Next stop on the whirlwind tour was Charleston, for a visit with Sissi. Sara, Ryan, Emmy and I headed to Kiawah’s Beachwalker Park for a day on the beach. Emery is quite the beach bum, spending a total of seven hours on the beach and didn’t seem ready to leave when the rest of us were. She and her daddy played all day, and I’m not sure which one of them enjoyed it more!
Sara did a great job of documenting our day at the beach, so in an effort to not make everyone go through the same pictures twice, here’s a link to her blog entry, if you haven’t already seen it.
Sissi and I did some babysitting while Sara and Ryan had a date night for their 5th anniversary. The next morning Sissi and I left early to walk the Ravanel bridge in Charleston. This is a beautiful suspension bridge that goes over Charleston Harbor. It was built with a walking/biking pathway which is two miles long to go the full length. We walked it up and back, and stopped at the apex to have someone take our picture.
Here’s a picture of the bridge from the Battery
The next day while Sissi was at school I toured downtown Charleston. It was a hot day! I took tons of pictures, but realized that Monday was trash day “South of Broad”, so there were lots of large trash cans to try and shoot around. I focused on door and gates, which are so traditional for Charleston, and so beautiful.
And of course, the obligatory Rainbow Row
the famed pineapple fountain
A few nature shots while I was there
Angel Oak
Gotta love the Spanish moss in the trees, and the trees draping the roads!
These were shot in the marsh across the street from Sis's house
