HE CHARLESTON AREA has
a lot to offer for a quick
vacation, and the winter-time
could be the perfect
season for an introduc-tion
to the city. Seasonal
temperatures are often
comfortable, especially
when biking alongside a
saltwater marsh in the sun,
walking a cobblestone
street protected from the
wind by historic mansions,
or dining on a rooftop under
a gas heater and watching
the sunset.
Also, bugs and fellow
tourists are much less prev-alent
than in the warmer
months.
Whether exploring the
sites that have made the
city famous or searching for
a break from the everyday
routine, a weekend jaunt to
Charleston is a great way to
spend some downtime.
