My New Favorite City

Dane got monday off for springbreak so we headed down to explore Charleston South Carolina for the weekend with Brian, Danielle, and Tanner - I am IN LOVE WITH CHARLESTON!!!
We decided to go kind of last minute and none of us really even took time to plan out what we would do when we got there so we showed up and planned as we went. All I wanted to do was walk up and down every street of every neighborhood because the homes were amazingly beautiful and the neighborhoods were just the cutest neighborhoods I have ever seen.



I mean it, I would have been content walking through these neighborhoods for days and days.
We took a boat tour which would have been a little more fun if Quinn hadn't drowned out every word the tour guide spoke because she was so tired and cried the whole time

Hands down the favorite part for all of us was a horse and buggy ride we went on through the city. The guide had so many fun stories about Charleston he told us about a haunted jail, the girl that inspired Edgar Allan Poe, showed us homes worth 23 million dollars, and much much more. There are 20 different buggy routes you can take throughout the city and we all agreed that if we had the money we would go on all 20 in a heart beat!!
Dani and Quinn
We went to Folly Beach (where they filmed some of Dear John) and Sullivans Island and hung out a bit
Dani and Brian - these two are two of our very best friends and our favorite vacation buddys. We have done trips to Florida, Pennsylvania, and now South Carolina together and everytime we go home loving them even more than we did before the trip...and mind you we LOVED them before every trip.
Tanner - tell me he is not the cutest little boy
If you look really really close you can see Fort Sumter
Fort Moultrie
It was such a fun trip if I don't get my way and end up moving to Charleston one day I hope I at least get to go on the 19 other buggy rides I didn't get to go on this trip
