Charleston is a beautiful city filled with lots of charm and lots of history. Exploring cities by foot is our favorite way to get a feel for a new place, so staying at the Francis Marion, a historic hotel in the heart of Charleston, was ideal since it's located on King Street, a street boasting block after block after block of local and regional shops and restaurants. Also, the Francis Marion overlooks Marion Square which is where the Saturday Farmer's Market is held, so we were close to the action and enjoyed viewing the wares being sold at various vendor booths.
Of course, food was at the center of our vacation (as is always the case with us!). We tried to hit all of the bakeries and cupcakeries in town, including Cupcake, which was a mere three blocks from our hotel. We also indulged in yummy seafood at a restaurant on Market Street, and donuts and beignets (yes, beignets!) from the Farmer's Market.
We had a great time and look forward to visiting Charleston when the weather is warmer! As always, we're sending lots of love and hugs across the miles...the girlz
