This two week long festival of arts ( May 27 - June 19th . features a changing venue of local and national talent in music, dance and the visual arts. Today we went to a local craft fair where CC bought a ceramic fish plate, Then we took in an out of doors fine art exhibit. The artist there were every bit as good (if not better) than anything we had seen in Greenville. And finally we paid our first visit to Charleston’s Gibbes Museum of Art. Hey had a particularly interesting exhibit on the history of the art of printmaking, along with examples of prints the print making process.
Of course, no visit to Charleston would be complete without a dining at one of its many fine restaurants. This time decided to sample the Low Country fare at The Buccaneer. is a locally-owned restaurant and tavern that resides in an historic warehouse dating back to the late 1700s. It's located in what was Charleston's original wharf front district on cobble-stoned Faber Street. The entrance and the lobby areas best represent the original design of the structure. It is dedicated to the authentic history of piracy along the Carolina coast. A collection of unique artifacts is displayed throughout the restaurant explores the golden age of piracy, 1690 - 1730.

CC had a lobster
mac. and cheese dish that was to die for.
Tiny lobster filled ravioli were baked in a three cheese sauce then
served with a grilled slipper tail lobster.
Bruce’s shrimp and grits dish was equally delicious.
