🌈 Charleston Mini-Gateway: A Colorful Southern Escape
📍 "Charleston—where God spilled His paintbox!" 🎨 ✈️ Perfect for a 3-day weekend (June-teenth/4th of July!) Direct flights from PVD/BOS/JFK – Took the 6:30 AM from PVD, landed by 8:30 AM = "stole" a whole day! 🌟 Must-Do Highlights 1. Rainbow Row 🌈 (P2-7) Waterfront Park’s pastel houses – Wear bright dresses for dreamy photos! Pro tip: Morning light = no crowds + soft glow. 2. Cypress Gardens 🎬 (The Notebook filming spot!) 30 mins from downtown – That swan boat scene from your teenage tears? HERE. 😭💖 $12 entry – Use a wide-angle lens to capture misty reflections (cloudy days = more cinematic!). *"A $150-$200 Hyatt/Hilton stay nails the budget."* 🍃 Why It’s Perfect for Couples & Solo Souls ✅ Slow walks under Spanish moss ✅ Lowcountry cuisine (she-crab soup, anyone?) ✅ Savannah combo trip (coming soon in pt.2!) "Three days of pastel streets, swampy dreamscapes, and nostalgia—proof that the South heals fast." 💫 #TheNotebookVibes #SouthernCharm #WeekendEscape #EastCoastTravel #CharlestonColors
