Good friends from Ottawa, John & Marg Coleman, visited us in Charleston in late January providing us an opportunity to be tourists in our own town. The weather was cool for most of the time that they were here, however, to visitors from Ottawa it was just fine! The first photo shows John and Marg getting ready to tuck into dinner in our kitchen.
The following photos include shots of downtown Charleston in the historic district including some of the grand old houses along the Battery. One dinner at one of the grand old restaurants downtown turned out to be a disappointment, but a final dinner at the beach on Superbowl sunday was a very pleasant surprise.
One of our visits included the aquarium which was very well done. In addition to all the displays inside of the building, we were lucky to have been visited by a pod of dolphins in the harbor out front that put on a show for us almost as if they had been part of the exhibit!
The Ryans had to go back to Washington during the week but the Colemans used our place as a base and visited every plantation and historic site within reach. I believe that a good time was had by all!
