Another great day on the map.

We did a LOT of eating out today. Every day. It is par for the course in Charleston.

Of course…… the evening would not be complete without a trip to the Pralines Store on Market Street. Kim “Free Sample” Parlnie hooked us up. She sold us more than a pound and a half of candy…. and all we wanted was two pralines. She works it.

But maybe the highlight of the day was the Charleston Aquarium. It was quite an impressive facility. I told them so. And then they hunted us down and gave us a behind the scenes tour.

I got to see my favorite Sea Turtle close up. And a stork nearly accosted me. Lemurs. Otters. Geckos. Snakes. Jellyfish. Stingrays. Eagles. Sharks. And Grouper. Everything from A to Z in the way of the water worlds. They had it all. It reminds me how diverse, and amazing, this planet can be. Whenever I get to see wildlife that close…. where I can look into their eyes. Well.  Experiencing their beautiful design and majestic presence gives me a case of the “hair-on-the-back-of-my-neck tingles”. It connects me. It reminds me. It humbles me.

Yep. A very good day. And I didn’t destroy one single iPhone.

Stellar.
