I was finally able to find the Mount Pleasant and Sullivan's Island bumper stickers!

We drove by Marion Square to get an idea of the artist markets. The park was packed. We'll probably go through it on Saturday morning, before heading out to Magnolia Plantation.

We stopped by The Battery for a little while and took a few photos, but the memory card malfunctioned and they were lost. I'll retake them and post them later.

There was a short stop at Charleston Waterfront Park...

We ate supper at RB's in Mount Pleasant on Shem Creek. We last ate here about 4 years ago. We started with crab stuffed mushrooms that were very good. They were covered in cheese and nicely stuffed. I wanted to get a pick two of fried oysters and broiled scallops, but was told both items had to be prepared the same way. That was a big disappointment, so I settled for the fried oyster platter, baked potato, and green beans. The oysters were slightly overcooked, but still good. Steven had the fried flounder fillet, cheese grits and Charleston Red Rice. The flounder was good, but extremely flavorful. It doesn't compare well to the Charleston Crab House flounder. We both agree that the view, as you will see, is out of this world. It is our favorite setting to eat...



There were 5-7 dolphins circling around the creek, but they are VERY difficult to photograph. I've been trying for years.


Afterward, we made a Bee line to the Maritime Center to make the 9:15 Sandlapper Ghost and Harbor Cruise. This was pretty good, but not very scary. We heard some of the stories from other tours, but a few were new and some filled in facts we didn't know. The cruise passed under the Ravanel bridge, where I was able to take a nice photo of one of the two supporting pylons.

Here is 12:37, so I should sign off and get ready for bed.

Tomorrow brings a drive to Isle of Palms for some quality beach time, lunch at Andoline's Pizza, Shopping on Sullivan's Island, a walk through Fort Moultrie, dinner at either Sullivan's (Sullivan's Island) or Vickeries (on Shem Creek) and a couple hours of walking through Historic residential Charleston (Church Street, East Bay Street)
