Today was another walking tour day. In the morning we went on another AAA walking tour that brought us down to the harbor and the really large Charleston homes with views of Fort Sumter in the distance and cannon balls imbedded in their roofs.

We went on two house tours. The first one was of the Calhoun Mansion, in name only as the notable politician, John C. Calhoun had nothing to do with it. The current owner of the mansion still resides there and since the '60s has been filling it up with every curio imaginable—very Victorian. No photographs, inside, alas.

Then we bought a two-fer ticket for two houses. Today's 2nd visit was to the home of a wealthy merchant that had been extensively restored. We saved the other house tour for our last day.

Exhausted from all the walking, we headed back to the Inn to put our feet up. Then it was a low budget dinner at the The Pink Pig Bar & Q for some great southern barbecue. We feed the both of use for less than the cost of an entrée at a fancier place and took a doggy bag back to the Inn to boot.
