Today was the day my family decided going on trips with Thamina is not a good idea. For me I love just being part of a city. I love walking around and seeing what is there. I have a photographic memory so I literally take the views of the city with me. We stopped at the Charleston Visitor's Center and got ready what everyone thought was the Museum Mile tour. This tour brings you through the major historical center via Meeting Street. However, when I went into the visitor's center I found a walking tour of Charleston which added x-amount of descriptions to the original tour. The path was similar but I knew that my family would get tired of me quickly. So we began the adventure. Honestly, it would have gone quickly if it had been myself but when you are a group of seven everyone has their own agenda, something I needed to be reminded of constantly because I was becoming a brat about it. So what I thought would only take a couple of hours took longer. People were tired and lunch did not happen until 2:30. We only took tours of two houses: The Calhoun Mansion and the Edmondston-Alston house. I wanted to go on a couple of more tours but did not feel right making others pay for more stuff. Every house had a $10 entrance fee so four houses adds up quickly. After lunch we called it a day. We stopped at Patriot's Point to check out their times and decided to stop there tomorrow before we flew home. The rest of the time we played at the beach. I love the beach! I would love to come and visit Charleston again. This has been a great vacation!
