Charleston: The Beginning to the Best Summer Ever

I arrived in Charleston with my mom and sister on May 19th after a long, rainy day on the road. Once we got to downtown, it was beautiful! It is a great city that you can take nice long walks with the shaded moss trees. One of my favorite parts about Charleston are the horse drawn carriages. We decided to take one around the city even though it started pouring.  We learned so many fun facts about Charleston. Apparently some people call it the Holy City because there are so many churches, but they ain't got nothing on Nashville!

Fun facts:
All of the street corners are round so that the devil can't cross the street.
The houses have privacy doors and if they are open that means people are welcome in.
The houses are built facing the west so the breeze could air condition the homes in the summer.

Overall, Charleston is a very beautiful city that I would love to revisit someday.
