Charleston Sightseeing

We did some sightseeing the last few days so let me catch you up.

First we went to see the Angel Oak Tree that is located on John’s Island, very near our RV park.  Here is the link to explain the tree (very old) www.angeloaktree.com.

The best I could do to get the whole tree in the picture.

The trunk of the tree.

Fran saw this white squirrel on a nearby tree.

On Thursday we walked around downtown Charleston to see the historic homes, Battery Park, City Market and have lunch.  Lunch was at one of the popular restaurants, Jestine’s Kitchen (sorry, no website).

Here are some pictures from our walking around.

Courtroom in the historic old courthouse.  The courtroom is still in use.  This dates back to the 1700’s.

The law library in the old courthouse.

Pineapple fountain in the park by the bay.

Famous historic painted houses.

Battery Park.

It was cold on the walk and there was a breeze to make it feel colder but it was nice to see the historic buildings and the magnificent architecture in the city.
