Christmas Spirit in Charleston

In Down Town Charleston stays a magnificent big Christmas tree


Beautiful Christmas decorations everywhere you go


And the gifts are ready - outside of the store


My favorite of all Christmas trees I have seen yesterday was here in a Irish Pub

David and I went for a little stroll to catch the Christmas spirit in Down Town of Charleston. I found a lot of pretty and very tastefully decorated stores, coffee shops and buildings. I love to see all the magic of Christmas!

    Very pretty decorations. I love the simplicity of the white boxes wrapped with red ribbon. The last pic is just beautiful.

    Charleston is a beautiful city but is made even MORE beautiful with the addition of the holiday decorations. I hope you will be sharing more of the festive lights and decorations!

    The Irish Pub looked inviting to me. I could almost taste the Guiness Ale. Your Photographs are outstanding. I'll call back soon and have a really thorough look. Seasons Greetings Noel

    Hi Noel,

    thank you for your wonderful compliment.

    As a big Guiness lover myself, I had a hard time to say 'no" to it, but, you know.. it was only afternoon, so..we all know that Guiness is a strong beer...I think, it was a wise desicion...LOL.. :)

    thanks for stopping by.

    The first image is such a ncie tree and in a nice setting too. Our tree in my towncentre isn't quite as beautiful nor the setting.

    I love the last image it has such atmosphere.

    Pubs have always a nice ambiance - also without a Christmas tree, right?
