Stan decided this morning
our departure day from Charleston would be Monday morning. The weather looks
nice for most of the week, with cooler temperatures the first half, so we need
to get moving. We'll be anchoring out a lot between here and the Chesapeake and
cooler nights are a good thing. I'm excited about getting back on the water,
but at the same time it's hard to leave this amazing town. Everything you could
ever need is so accessible here...great restaurants, great grocery stores,
great shopping, great entertainment and wonderfully friendly people.
We spent our last day in
Charleston enjoying the 43th annual Greek Festival put on by the Holy TrinityGreek Orthodox Church. The festival was full of authentic Greek food and
pastries, folk dance, live music, a Bouturi wine tasting, craft vendors and church tours. We
really enjoyed listening to the music of George Antonopoulos…he was amazing on
the bouzouki. I should have taken a video of him…he had so much energy. After
the festival we rode our bikes to the Water Front Park for one more look around
town, and then stopped at the grocery store…it’s going to take a little time to
get used to shopping on bikes again.
