Christmas Spirit in Charleston - Part 2

Simple and beautiful door decorations to an Italian Restaurant in Down Town


Do you like window shopping?


"What would the world be without jewelry"?
That's what the sign is telling you


One of all the many, pretty art galleries in down town, dresses up in Christmas spirit


"The old Market" building looks beautiful!


And don't forget to take a look at the Battery Street with all the big houses and their wonderful magic of light and decorations. You think for a short time to be in a fairy land.

    I know Anna, some snow flakes in between the subjects would be picture perfect, but Charleston has never snow - or maybe just for one day or so...that's the South.:)

    Thanks for commenting!
