Charleston Maritime Marina

We moved around the end of the Charleston Peninsula to Charleston Maritime Marina because we wanted to stay longer and they could take us. It is even closer to all the restaurants and tourist haunts plus it has a laundry and near a Harris Teeter so we could restock. After some housekeeping, we got on our bikes and rode downtown to lunch at the Charleston Crab house-yum. Then on to this is a big waterfront greenway park called the Battery –it is full of Civil War cannons and piles of cannonballs and statues. It was and absolutely perfect day (low humidity, light wind- about 75degrees) Great people watching, beautiful homes, smelled of honeysuckle and magnolias. On the way back to the boat we stopped by Fleet Landing for a little libation and had a new drink—Pomegranate Mojito made with Guava Rum—I told Fitz we needed to go back there for Happy Hour tomorrow night.
