Our trip
I've just got back from a whirlwind road trip through South Carolina, Florida and Georgia (taking in a few days in Disneyworld). Was mega but exhausting. The best bits were definitely when we stayed with friends - we lived out there and hadn't seen our mates for years so there was much catching up to do.
We had a couple of days in the most idyllic spot near Beaufort, SC at a friend's waterfront house (first bit of house envy coming up - check out the view from the house)
It was truly heaven at Red Bluff - Thing 1 and 2 had a Huckleberry Finn sort of time, and we caught crabs and ate them. Glorious.
And here we all are looking like the Waltons!
Disneyworld was complete madness (a tip - never go during the US spring break). To get on any good rides you had to be at the parks at the crack of dawn - literally. Now I don't know about you, but alarm clocks don't usually figure in my holidays, so we did what we could.
Quite by chance we ran in to some very old friends who live in Atlanta, so we decided to cut our trip to Florida short and hoof it up to Altlanta and stay with them. And what a car trip! 10 hours door-to-door including the most spectacular lightning storm. We did stop at the Waffle House at Thing 1's insistence (it was grits, waffles and hash browns - smothered and covered, the only way), and for at least 20 wees (Thing 2 just couldn't manage to go when everyone else did).
Eventually we arrived at Pam's house and all I need to say about that is:
Sigh! Knocks a 1920's semi into a cocked hat...
