Georgetown, South Carolina 5th April

We booked this hotel as it was midway between Charleston and Myrtle Beach. As we arrived into Georgetown passing by the smelly paper works and also the noisy steel mill ,we wondered what we had done!
This morning we went for a long walk from the hotel which was by the marina out of town and found that the old town was very beautifull and full of character. Many old colonial style houses on wide tree lined streets all painted in many pastel colours and enhanced by the many azaleas which were in full bloom. Lunch was in a small cafe overlooking the river and the town was very quiet and apparently its often this way.
The many pictures we took will show how nice this little town is and house prices are very low by UK standards.
A visit to the local Walmart provided dinner inc a bottle of wine. We often eat in the hotel room as you get fed up eating in restaurants which all serve far to much food.
Tomorrow we hit the big town of Charleston so watch this space for update.
This is the second time of typing as had just finished the blog and the hotel network went down and we lost the lot.
