What a day, much better than yesterday. For starters it was cool in the morning, almost cold even. I went to a little cafe for breakfast in Georgetown and it was great. I ate some power food, southern omelette and some grits. The grits were good but I definitely googled how to eat grits... I didn't know if I should butter them, salt them, ketchup then or even give them the jam. I ended up with salt and pepper, felt classic.
After that it was a straight sixty five miles to Charleston and I just grinded it out. Kept a good pace and everything, powered by breakfast.
When I got to Charleston my hostel wouldn't check me in until 5 pm so I went to "fuel" nearby for food and football. Apparently, "fuel" was featured on diners, drive ins and dives and oh boy, rightfully so. Had some pork tacos that knocked off my socks. I need to buy new socks they were knocked off so hard. Incredibly delicious, amazingly so.
I'm going to spend the next two days here resting up and taking in the town. I might eat everything, hopefully so. Hopefully I enjoy this town, it looks like a neat place.
