I didn’t like the idea of having stayed in High Falls park
and not explored some of the trails. I
got up early to enjoy a walk and found the 2.5 mile ‘tranquillity trail’...
.... which lived up to its name as I didn’t see another soul during my walk. You can see from this picture (above) the peaceful
campsite we resided in whilst in the park. The rains of the past few days
appeared to have moved on.

I returned to wake Simon up and hit the road, we had a long
day of driving ahead of us to make our next booking in South Carolina, about 5
hours in total. By the end of the day we
would be back on the East coast of the USA!
As soon as we entered South Carolina (our 23rd
State) the landscape
dramatically changed to marsh/swamp and the after effects of Hurricane Matthew
was clearly visible – there were trees down everywhere! Lots of palm trees and water.
As we drove between Savannah and our stop for the night, just South of
Charleston, we crossed one wildlife refuge after another along massive expanses
of water. The wildlife on the East coast
was going to be incredible....

The drive was not as lengthy as feared and we even stopped
off when we saw this sign:
An amazing store full of independent
home-made produce but imagine our disappointment when all of their cider turned
out to be non-alcoholic! Shame….
We arrived at Lake Aire RV park about 430pm giving me enough
time to do my orientation walk of the site to get my bearings, including
circumnavigating this lovely fishing lake:
