Our Last Day in ChuckTown

Our last day in South Carolina was a great one. We had a leisurely morning and didn't get started until 10:30 am!  We were up and out every other day by around 8 so this was late for us.  We  headed to Sullivan's Island for a beach day and of course, FOOD.  

We ate at Poe's on Sullivan's Island.  It was a fun little beachy place that had great food.  All of the food had an Edgar Allan Poe reference.  Neil and I shared the Tell Tale Heart chicken sandwich.  It came with a fried egg on top!

All of us

We were pretty much the most unprepared people on the beach that day.  We had 2 towels between the 6 of us and the Buteau's brought those from their hotel.  Thankfully they let me borrow one. We had to lay out on our cover-ups and t-shirts we bought from Poe's.  It was just plain sad.  I was trying hard not to over-pack on this trip and I really ended up under packing.  So, we had no towel, no beach bag, and our sunscreen was out!  Being unprepared did not stop our fun.  We got a little tan and relaxed by the water.

Neil kept trying to take "artsy" photos.  This means turning the camera in an odd direction.

After the beach, we headed to McCrady's, the oldest restaurant in Charleston.  We had 2 other reservations for dinner and cancelled them to go to McCrady's.  The food was crazy exotic and not my favorite.  But, we had to eat at the place where George Washington used to hang out.  The food was very eccentric...Neil and Matthew even ate octopus!

We decided that in 3 1/2 days in Charleston we ate/drank/tasted at 17 different places!  Wow...that is a feat.

We decided to have 1 last hurrah after dinner at Kaminsky's, the little dessert place.  We all split a Toll House pie and a snickerdoodle cake.  We had to improvise since there we no tables left in the restaurant so we went over to the City Market to chow down.  I just loved this spontaneous little dessert adventure.
