We had a great walking tour of Charleston; the historian was very knowledgeable and informative. Our 2 hour tour took us by many interesting points of historical significance.
This type of house is unique to Charleston. It is called a single house; it features multi-story construction, one room wide, sideways to the street. The main purpose of the piazzas or porches is to keep the afternoon sun off of the house.
We also saw the first First Baptist Church in America which was started in 1620.
On Sunday morning we went to FBC Hilton Head and had communion.
For lunch we went to Skillets but were too hungry to get a picture before we started digging in!
We got our bikes for the week but it was a rainy, cool afternoon so we stayed in and watched the Lady Vols beat GA and the A&M women beat Arkansas. We played board games and started a new jig-saw puzzle.
