It's been a long first week back from vacation ... which only serves to make our Charleston trip seem like it was ages and ages ago. But I'm almost done posting my recap, so let's press on. Besides, pretty flowers can never hurt, right?My brother drove out from Conway, SC, to meet us last Wednesday. (Again, was that only last Wednesday??) We visited Magnolia Plantation and its Gardens. There must be some sort of law requiring people to visit Magnolia when you're in Charleston — after all, the manor is one of the top 25 most visited historic homes in the U.S. Suffice it to say, the large number of visitors taking over the place took a little of the romance out of its Romantic Gardens. That, and the crazy loud leaf blowers.
Still, you can't beat quaint little bridges arching over green swamps and getting lost in horticultural mazes. Every turn of the path we rounded left me feeling like I had discovered my own secret garden.
