Surrey with a fringe on top

Well I'm not sure if it was a surrey, but it was a horse drawn carriage and it did have a fringe on top, and it was a brilliant way to explore downtown Charleston.
We spent a very short hour on the carriage and the driver gave us a humorous potted history of Charleston, explaining things like the wealth in the town and not the haves and have nots, but the haves and have a whole lot more each side of Broad street.
Then it was on to the hour and a half harbour tour, which again was great.
We learned about the first shots of the civil war being fired from fort Johnson on the Confederate side to fort Sumpter on the union side.
While this went on the people of Charleston who lived by the water watched and partied as it was so far away from them across the bay.
We also saw things like the retired aircraft carrier Yorktown which is now docked at Patriots Point, and is a floating museum.
The tour, carriage and boat was booked by Chisit, online before we came away, the whole thing cost $39 per person, which was brilliant as the carriage ride alone booked on the ship was £34
So once again well done John.
We then had a walk around the slave museum, which was quite touching and humbling in many ways.
Then a stroll to find something to eat, we first tried to find a place called AW Shucks which had been recommended, but we couldn't find it, so we ended up in a restaurant called Sticky Fingers where we had pulled pork and fries washed down with a large draught beer.
It was brilliant and John and I agreed we'd never had our pork pulled so well in a long time...lmaoRead more
