There were several people waiting for family members like we were. One was a family with a 5yr old boy named...Kale! Fast friends.
Snuggle time!
We found the pool!
The entrance to the Augusta River Walk. Very pretty area. Downtown Augusta really isn't that big. A very nice. smaller Southern city.
There was a farmers' market right outside of the entrance to the River Walk.
At the farmers' market we bought some fresh Georgia peaches. Yummm!! Juice was running down our hands.
This is just one of the large, beautiful houses that we could see from across the Savannah River in South Carolina.
A Japanese Pocket Garden on the Walk.
Time to cool off in the "fountain" in the middle of the market.
We took a Riverboat tour. Captain Jim was a good tourguide.
This was a cool house that was on top of "Granite Mountain." Story is that a 100yr old doctor lives there. He still goes to work everyday and delivers babies.
White-water rapids. No boat, other than kayaks, go past those.
Cool cyprus trees in the river.
Cael got to drive the boat!
A nice lady took a picture of us.
We're so close to the coast, we have lots of options for fresh seafood. Yum! We wanted to try raw oysters, so we ordered 6 on the half-shell. Allen had 3, I had 2, and Cael had 1. You don't chew them, just swallow, so Cael had to eat one in several different sessions since they were too big for him to get down all at once. We all liked them! We also had fresh crablegs. We're not sure Red Lobster is going to be good enough ever again. Rhinehart's Oyster Bar was a great place! It looks like a total dive inside and out, but we got there at 4:30, thinking it was pretty early, but the parking lot was already quite full. You can see the table we were sitting at. They were all wooden picnic tables. Kind of cool.
