Charleston SC to North Myrtle Beach SC

Charleston City Marina is a very interesting place, and good for people watching as well as boat watching.  Some of the boat names are amusing:




Some of the yachts in are very impressive and we are dwarfed by our dock mates:
This photo does not do these boats justice.  They are probably 3 times our size.


Probably because in my last post I mentioned the great weather, yesterday it changed on us.  We left Charleston about 0900 and within an hour started to see dark skies to our west.  As soon as Carol took the wheel the rain came, and came, and came.  It was hard to see anything in front of us and we just had to rely and the chartplotter.  Lightening, thunder, the whole bit.  It finally stopped a couple of hours later, for a while.  Then just as we came into Myrtle Beach it started up again.  Not as heavy as before but still enough to get us all wet.  There are no photos because we are way to busy to take pictures.

 But as you can see, there is a calm after the storm and the gift of a rainbow.

Today we are headed for Carolina Beach and the weather is good, so far.
