MERCURY CRUISE OUT OF CHARLESTON

On April 6, 2010 Harry and I flew to Charleston South Carolina to spend three days there before boarding the Celebrity Mercury for a Western Caribbean Cruise. We stayed at the French Quarter Inn, nicely located in the historic downtown district, and easy walking distance to the port. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed our time in Charleston very much!

Just one of the many beautiful churches that line the streets in historic downtown.
