Charleston

The city itself has an unrealistically charming vibe, it feels like that you have been there forever, even if that is your first time. It is vibrant, colorful and alive. The weather was beautiful perfect spring, eventhough the weatherforecast promised rain for that weekend. We did a bit of sight seeing, we went to the canon pier as well as the famous fountain of Charleston, which does look like as a pineapple. As you walk down on the Waterfront pier you can find those swinging chairs hanging from the roof of the pier. It looks so nice, the swings overlooks at the bay area, you can see ships coming in and going out, it is truly relaxing. I bet you have heard about the hurricane season, which happens yearly around here, so Charleston lies below sea level. Which means it can get flooded really easy, that is one of the reasons why Charleston has such a unique design of it’s buildings. By this I mean that ground floor is not a common thing to build, their house start on the first floor, which makes it a bit less easy for the water to ruin the enterior during floods.
