We enjoyed a few relaxing days in Charlotte, North Carolina. We were much happier in our hotel room there which had a living room, kitchen, and 2 bedrooms. Everyone slept much better. The girls' excitement over free mediocre hotel breakfasts is inexplicable. After breakfast we spent some time at the hotel pool. We picked up lunch at our favorite North Carolina chain, Cook-Out, and ate it at a park where the kids had fun exploring and playing. Charlotte is a really pretty town with beautiful tree-lined streets. We drove around downtown a bit and checked out the local scene.
Score! Our hotel had a Sonic right next door. Happy hour drinks and half-price shakes in the evening!
We found a beautiful picnic spot at a lake the next day. I told the kids they could put their feet in the water but they had different plans.
We were only a few miles from South Carolina so we had to cross the border and have dinner at Culver's that night.
Lakes, rivers and Sonic? Bliss.
