A Mini Travel Guide to Charleston, South Carolina

When Josh and I got married, a couple from our church gifted us with registration to a marriage conference. There were several locations to choose from, and we decided to make a trip out of it. We’d never been to Charleston and had heard great things! 

I reached out to a few people who I knew had lived in or been to the city and tried to come up with a list of things to see with the limited free time we’d have. 

Logistical things:

We flew into Charleston International Airport, stayed at the Charleston Marriott on Lockwood Drive and rented a car. The Marriott we stayed at was the one chosen for the retreat, but it happened to be super close to Downtown Charleston, Rainbow Row, King Street, etc, so that was nice. Fun fact: We had 5 different kinds of biscuits that weekend, including a breakfast biscuit from Chick Fil A at the airport lol.

DAY 1: Friday we flew in mid-day and picked up the rental car and drove to a place called the Workshop, which was on the way to our hotel. We ate ramen and talked for a while before driving to Rainbow Row.

We had a session that evening but still managed to squeeze in a trip to the Historical Charleston City Market to get Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit. We ended up going back over there on Saturday too.

Rainbow Row

DAY 2: Saturday we woke up early to eat breakfast at Toast, had sessions all morning and before the afternoon sessions, we ate lunch at the Oyster House and drove through Downtown Charleston, including a stop at the Waterfront. That night we had dinner at TBonz (it was okay) after taking too long to decide where to eat.

DAY 3: Sunday we ate a quick breakfast (I forget where) before having our last sessions in the morning. Then we had brunch at Poogan’s Porch.

We drove back near King Street, found a random parking garage and spent the afternoon walking around the Battery and King Street. (Honestly, we walked all around so I’m sure I’m not explaining this as well as possible.) Also I had heard of the giant, beautiful trees in Charleston so we found a a few squares throughout the day and then decided to drive to a park before we headed back to the airport. We ended up going to Hampton Park, and the trees were gorgeous!

We finished up at the park and headed to the airport to catch our flight home. Though it was a quick trip, we’ll definitely be back 🙂

I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for newbie blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

  8. I think that a home foreclosure can have a major effect on the applicant’s life. Real estate foreclosures can have a Six to a decade negative influence on a client’s credit report. A new borrower who has applied for a home loan or just about any loans as an example, knows that a worse credit rating can be, the more tricky it is to get a decent loan. In addition, it may affect any borrower’s chance to find a quality place to lease or rent, if that turns into the alternative housing solution. Interesting blog post.

  12. Can I just say what a relief to search out someone who actually is aware of what theyre speaking about on the internet. You undoubtedly know the way to convey an issue to mild and make it important. More folks must learn this and understand this aspect of the story. I cant imagine youre no more standard because you definitely have the gift.

  13. A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment. I do think that you should publish more on this issue, it may not be a taboo subject but usually people don’t speak about such topics. To the next! Kind regards!!

  14. Superb blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
    I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost
    on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free
    platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that
    I’m completely confused .. Any ideas? Many thanks!

  15. Hey just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading correctly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same results.

  16. Terrific work! This is the type of information that
    are meant to be shared across the net. Disgrace on the seek engines for no longer positioning this submit upper!

    Come on over and consult with my web site .
    Thank you =)

  17. Interesting blog post. Things i would like to bring about is that personal computer memory has to be purchased if the computer can no longer cope with that which you do by using it. One can add two good old ram boards with 1GB each, for instance, but not one of 1GB and one having 2GB. One should look for the maker’s documentation for one’s PC to ensure what type of storage it can take.

  18. I have been browsing online more than 3 hours nowadays, but I by no means discovered any fascinating article like yours. It?s lovely worth sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made good content material as you probably did, the web might be a lot more useful than ever before.

  19. Hello there! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against
    hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?

  20. This is really interesting, You’re a very skilled blogger. I’ve joined your rss feed and look forward to seeking more of your excellent post. Also, I have shared your site in my social networks!

  22. I?m no longer certain where you are getting your info, but great topic. I must spend a while learning much more or figuring out more. Thank you for great information I was in search of this info for my mission.

  23. Wow that was odd. I just wrote an incredibly long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear.
    Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyway, just
    wanted to say fantastic blog!

  35. One thing I would really like to say is the fact before getting more computer memory, consider the machine directly into which it can be installed. If the machine is definitely running Windows XP, for instance, the memory threshold is 3.25GB. The installation of over this would just constitute a new waste. Make sure that one’s mother board can handle the actual upgrade quantity, as well. Good blog post.

  36. I like the valuable information you supply on your articles.

    once more here frequently. I’m fairly sure I’ll be told a
    lot of new stuff proper here! Good luck for the next!

  59. Also a thing to mention is that an online business administration course is designed for learners to be able to easily proceed to bachelors degree courses. The 90 credit diploma meets the other bachelor education requirements so when you earn your current associate of arts in BA online, you should have access to the most recent technologies on this field. Several reasons why students would like to get their associate degree in business is because they may be interested in the field and want to get the general instruction necessary in advance of jumping to a bachelor diploma program. Thanks for the tips you really provide as part of your blog.

  60. I’ve been researching Mitolyn for a while and finally came
    across a helpful article that breaks everything down — ingredients, side effects,
    and real user experiences. If you’re curious, check
    out this detailed post on Mitolyn reviews. It really helped me decide if the supplement was right
    for me.

  61. Thanks alot : ) for your post. I want to say that the cost of car insurance differs from one insurance policy to another, since there are so many different facets which give rise to the overall cost. One example is, the make and model of the vehicle will have a huge bearing on the fee. A reliable outdated family car will have an inexpensive premium over a flashy racecar.

  62. The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

  63. Thanks for your publication. What I want to point out is that when you are evaluating a good on the internet electronics retail outlet, look for a web page with full information on critical indicators such as the privacy statement, safety details, any payment guidelines, and various terms as well as policies. Constantly take time to read the help in addition to FAQ segments to get a better idea of the way the shop is effective, what they can perform for you, and in what way you can make the most of the features.

  64. I really love your website.. Excellent colors & theme. Did you develop this amazing site yourself? Please reply back as I’m attempting to create my very own website and would like to learn where you got this from or just what the theme is named. Cheers.

  66. Having read this I thought it was really enlightening. I appreciate you spending some time and effort to put this information together. I once again find myself spending a significant amount of time both reading and leaving comments. But so what, it was still worth it.
