Charleston

Charleston, SC still looks much like it would have back in the early years of our country. Save for a handful of buildings the tallest thing in the city are the steeples of churches, there are a couple of apartment buildings that are taller. The city is very nice; lots of good restaurants, shops, and places to go see. This trip I drove downtown and walked around checking out the city.

The old slave market. This was one of the largest slave markets in the South at the time, it now serves as a slavery museum.



The front of an old building at the docks




These alleyways are everywhere and lead to many different places. They're a nice escape from the city since all of them are practically gardens.






Houses along the alleys have gates opening into them





Coming ot the other end of one of the alleys I found an old cemetary and church that was being cleaned up at the time since it was overgrown.
