Traversing Charleston

 We went to see authors Knotts and Ragusa as they wrote one of the books we read for the class. They were very enlightening on South Carolina's importance in gauging how people vote in both parties. Following our conversation the class walked around the Charleston area and went shopping! 

 Here's a cute local boba place we stopped at. I had taro milk tea with tapioca pearls it was SO good. 




Later that day, we went to Nikki Haley's Rally held over by Fort Sumter. The naval ship, USS Yorktown, was MASSIVE and honestly served as an inspiring background relating to Haley's platform points on veterans and mental health services. Following the rally, we ate at this local seafood restaurant. Sasha and I shared a shrimp and crabcake platter and it was amazing.

We looked into the history of South Carolina as a whole and its' historical figures. The garden area was colorful especially for it being winter here.  Here's a car selfie with Steven on the drive there!
