Spontaneous trips:

-Sometimes things you do on a whim turn out to be some of the best memories.... even if things don't go as smoothly as you would like.

Yesterday was one of those days. We made PB&J's, fruit salad and then grabbed some chips and waters for each of us. I grabbed my camera and we all piled into Val's car, for a quick adventure to Charleston. By quick I mean left Charlotte at 4pm and arrived back in Charlotte around 1am.

Destination: Charleston, SC

Estimated time of arrival: 7:50pm              Actual time of arrival: 7pm

We arrived at Marion Square and found a metered parking space on the perimeter of the square. We immediately put coins in the meter enough for our estimated 2 hour visit.

  First thirty minutes we spent perusing the exhibition of Action Photo's from around the world. The photos were pretty awesome. you can view them here:

 We then used my phone as a GPS to navigate our way to Market Street and then on to Waterfront Park.
