A GREAT Two Days in Georgetown

Ah, Dear Readers - Once we got to Georgetown,  we could not bring ourselves to leave. Georgetown just happens to be one of our favorite spots. All the marinas are right off the main street. Our marina had 2 washers and 2 dryers that work. Both restaurants and ice cream can be found just a few blocks from the boat.

The deciding factor was the Taste of Georgetown held yesterday to benefit the Family Justice Center located in town. Main Street is lined with restaurants.  Most of the restaurants had small tents outside. You purchase tickets. Then, you trade your tickets in for samples of great food. 

We sampled the Cajun shrimp,  grilled chicken and andouille sausage over linguini from Graham's Landing. Oh, yum! Next, on to Root (yes, that truly is the name of the restaurant). There we sampled meatball served over creamy grits. This was a new idea for me. I never imagined this combo.  We continued wandering up and down the street, trying out tastes of food from this charming town.

Yes, they even had tents so you could sit in comfort as you enjoyed your seafood chowder followed by carrot cake and homemade ice cream. We had enough tickets to fill up on fantastic food AND get things to bring back to the boat.

This morning, we are once again off the dock bright and early. For breakfast, we enjoyed cinnamon rolls from Pawleys Island bakery- one of the last items picked up with our tickets at the Taste of Georgetown. 

Here's one last look as we leave Georgetown behind. It was a great 2 days. Now, we're headed south again.
