Festival of lights, James Island County Park, Charleston, SC


December 19

This extremely well managed County Park has a Christmas extravaganza each year.  It keeps getting bigger and bigger, attracting visitors from far and wide.  It takes Park staff weeks to get ready and install all the lights.  They have a "train" running through the park, or, as a camper, you can take a shuttle to view the light displays.  There is also a fair where you can meet Santa (...we didn't) and eat various healthy treats..We discovered "funnel cake", a delicious concoction made up of two food groups...maybe three!  Fried dough and icing sugar...Yum!   The park shuttle also makes daily runs into the city of Charleston for $10.00, leaving the campground at 9:00 AM and returning from the city's Visitor Centre at 4:00 PM.  A perfect way to explore the city without parking and driving hassles!
