Another attraction I have never visited while living in the Charleston area is one of the many plantations in the area. We found a
Groupon for
Magnolia Plantation and decided to check it out. I did not realize that several of the plantations were close to my in-law's house. Convenient!
When we first arrived, we encountered a peacock in the parking lot. They are such beautiful creatures! Later, while walking around the gardens, we came across his counterpart--a pea hen. We recently learned that is the name for a female. We have been watching
72 Cutest Animals on Netflix. Together they are called pea fowl.
The garden was lovely. They are lots of paths to walk down and wonderful views overlooking the water.

| We saw sooooo many of these guys throughout the gardens. Must be a nice place to live! |
 |
| These flowers reminded me of the flowers in Alice in Wonderland. One of my favorite movies! |
 |
| We did not tour the house on this visit, but the lower level consists of the gift shop. It was a lot larger than I expected and filled with lots of neat items. |
 |
| The bamboo garden. It was neat to walk among such large bamboo plants. |
