We woke up and headed to breakfast in Charleston at Toast. It was then a short walk through the City Market, an open air shopping area with tables and tables of local vendors. Its a great place to buy gifts and souvenirs! After shopping, we met up with our recent Charleston transplant friends and enjoyed hearing all about their move to Charleston.
It’s so amazing to have people in our lives who we haven’t seen in many months, but can still connect with immediately. They told us all about Charleston living, building/buying a house and fishing. We then took a ride to Shem Creek and Red’s Ice House for lunch. Red’s is a dive bar type place with an amazing view of the creek. We enjoyed some seafood and then headed back to the boat for a few chores while it rained. (Thanks subtropical storm Alberto)
We worked up an appetite with our chores and then made our way, on the marina courtesy shuttle, to Fleet Landing. I have no idea if Fleet Landing makes the list of top notch seafood restaurants in Charleston (there are so many choices), but it is one of my all time favorites. Fleet Landing overlooks the water and literally, inside or out, you have an amazing view of the harbor. Their seafood is so fresh and delicious. We were fortunate that our Famulari’s friends texted us as we were headed to the restaurant, to see if we wanted to meet up for dinner. I’m so glad it worked out! It was so fun to see their 4 year old daughter and our 3 year old daughter become instant friends. If only it were that easy as adults!
I’m sure you are tired of hearing all about food and are ready for some boating. Well tomorrow we finally leave Charleston and head to Beaufort SC!
