We finally left Myrtle Beach today, after a final walk on the sand. We were on the road shortly after 8.30am and had another trouble free 400 mile journey back to Charlottesville - where we are lowering the tone of the hotel by being about the only guests scruffing around in shorts and T shirts. Everyone else staying here appears to be attending one of eight weddings that are taking place today (all looking terribly smart). We headed back out to World of Beer tonight to have one final meal before heading bak to the UK (tomorrow it will be a sandwich in the railway station if we are lucky). The place was much busier than on our previous visits, with live music and loads of people. Our waitress (server!) recognised us from our last trip so we were well looked after, although I don't think the group are going to be threatening the charts anytime soon.
On our travels we were taking a look at some magazines and discovered 10 different magazines on quilting but over 15 on guns. My favourite has to be 'Handloader' - the official Ammunition Reloading Journal! I am going to notify HIGNFY.........
Seen on a restaurant sign 'Every Man's Dream - Dogs and Cream'. I'll leave you to ponder that one.
For those of you who hate the name ToysRus - how about 'Wee R Sweetz'.....
Finally a piece of knowledge you won't know how you lived without. From the travellers who brought you 'Tuatepere - the Sausage capital of the world' I offer you the even more intriguing
'Dunn (NC) - the Dump Truck Capital of the World'. The competition must be fierce.....
Pictures are sunrise, a giant pretzel and our night out
