We have just returned from our annual family vacation. Folly Beach in South Carolina has become our yearly destination in March. This year we rented a beach house just blocks from the beach, rented bikes and spent the week basking in the warm Carolina spring weather.
It is always a wonderful respite for us all. We rested, walked the beach, ate wonderful seafood (a plus for those of us transplanted to the Midwest from the coast!), went on long bike rides, played card games in the evenings and laughed till our sides split!
We did a little sightseeing, with a trip into Charleston. We went to Patriots Point, where the USS Yorktown is moored and took a water taxi boat to downtown Charleston. We went shopping in the Charleston Market, a wonderful open air market that dates back to the Slave Trade days of the southern city. Ate lunch at Monza's which was a wonderful find by Zac, who researched and planned most of our meals out. Where we had the best wood fire baked pizza with an egg on it, yummy! Really the pizza was amazing!
We were was able to find interesting local attractions and travel information from Discounthotels.com. They had some pretty great hotel discounts, and fun family vacations ideas!
All in all it was the best vacation so far, and that is saying a lot because that is what we said after last year's vacation! And yes, we did have cake! Tris Leches cake from Taco Boy on Folly Beach, the best ever!
Blessings!, C.
