Great guide, lots of sweets
Celia was very patient and understanding with us as we ambled around slowly due to limited mobility. There's a lot of walking to be had on a summery Charlston day. We needed lots of water in addition to the sweets. We visited all local vendors as far as I can tell. Beignets, biscuits, mini pancakes, bennies, pralines, and Italian ice. Well worth it for those with a sweet tooth.
