Charleston – Day Two

This morning we slept in, went to breakfast, and then went up to the stern and sat enjoying the lovely weather. There are all kinds of wild life here including a dolphin or two that appear to have adopted the ship.

Then around noon we went ashore to lunch at Magnolia’s. It was fun and super delicious. We had fried green tomatoes (the best we’ve ever had), tomato bisque soup, blue crab bisque soup and then I had fried chicken which came with grits and collard greens and biscuits and gravy. It was all delicious. I was sad I couldn’t take a to go container because I could not eat all of that. Tom had spicy seafood and tasso ham on grits. Delicious. Then we had to have a piece of pecan pie. We were so full at that point that we rolled over to Market Street where they have all kinds of touristy things to buy. We resisted.

After that we took a nap and then went up to tea and team trivia. We lost – BOO!! Anybody know what the glands of Montgomery are? We do now.

Then we were sitting there with our friends and laughing and having a good time and they kicked us out of the lounge because we were not appropriately dressed in after 6 PM attire. How do you like that?

Then we came back downstairs and lounged around and then went to dinner. And then we sat up in the lounge talking until I was about to fall asleep on the table.

Tomorrow – a sea day our last and packing. Blech.

Oh and also, we will need to have everyone create a sign-up sheet so that you can come over and feed us – we have breakfast between 8:00 A and 10:30 A, lunch between 12 P and 1:30 P, tea at 4:00 P and dinner from 6:30 P to 9:00 P. And we would like to have about 35 options on each menu. I just know Tom and I are going to get home and look at each other and say who is going to feed us? After every meal we say I cannot eat another thing but yet every meal time there we are again.

And also I think Tom and I are coming down with colds. BAH.
