Savannah is my favorite city so far. First of all, the City Scape is so beautiful, well thought out and functioning well. Every other Block there is a Garden park. The green spots on the map are indicating the gardens. It feels like all the buildings are connected by the tree and flowers. We went … More Savannah GA!

The South Charleston waterfront has many beautiful 18th centry grand houses. It shows the prosperity period of the past. Look at this mortar! The thickness of the wall, seems excessive. The park has many civil war artifacts like an outdoor museum. This is a sad monument, in 1952 two US warships collided on a training … More Charleston 2

We had a peaceful sail from Ocracoke to Oriental. It was very tranquile with the soothing sound of the waves, gentle movement of the boat with a blue sky and the delicious breeze. The sound maybe originated from the womb like the primeval memory of sound. The sun was beaming down  gentily and warmly to … More Oriental, NC
