Recently we traveled to Charleston, South Carolina. Prior to going, I came across an online list of activities to do with kids. We parked at the Visitor's Center and went inside for a city map -always a helpful tool to have. The kids each wanted maps too - every kids needs a map for an adventure! We headed around the corner on Ann Street to the Children's Museum. The kids were thrilled, played inside and each made a new friend. The Children's Museum included sections on gravity with balls, water and boats races, pirate boat complete with a jail and shackles, food market which included a cash register, art area and a castle area with a back staircase. The kids had fun exploring and pretending, putting those imaginations to work.
Hungry after some hearty play time, we headed over to the Buccaneer restaurant on Faber Street. When coming in through the doors there are swords, muskets and daggers on display. We enjoyed the food and atmosphere. There was a large circular fish tank in the middle of the restaurant. The kids enjoyed taking a look while waiting for the food. The food came quickly and was delicious. Reasonably priced. After dinner, we walked down to the pier. Along the pier, were tables and benches to visit and look across the water or visit with others. There were also some large family swings - big enough for four of us to sit comfortably across. Sitting there, rocking gently, looking out at the water, the wind blowing softly was a nice treat. After a while of visiting and rocking, we walked along the water. It was a nice night.
