The Slave Market in downtown Charleston


We headed on down to the area known as the "Charleston Slave Market", which is actually the old slave market, but today is a series of four or five blocks of vendors lined up on both sides of the buildings, selling lots of crafts, wares, and even some junk.  We always make it a point to browse the market when we're in town, and Bette never fails to pick up Christmas presents and a couple of silver necklaces for herself.  I sometimes find a pin to get, but today, was not moved to any purchases.  Cooper settled for a Ben and Jerry's.  We had to park in a carpark a couple of blocks away, set us back $5.00.  After here, we headed uptown to the Liberty Square and
SC Aquarium.
