Flying? Around here? Well, we did. Sally got us a deal for a 20 minute fly around the North Strand the other day. That was great. I've never had a chance to see the area from the air. There's a picture posted here somewhere, check it out.
Here @thebeach, January is usually a very slow month. The ocean is cold (duh!) and the golfers are taking the month off. What's a restaraunt to do? Well, instead of closing during the winter doldrums, a lot (and I mean a lot) of the eateries up and down the Grand Strand offer "buy one get one free," 50% off entries, and "buy one get 50% off your second entree" type deals.
For example, the very popular Charaschurria Rioz at Broadway @ the beach was offering 50% off on Sundays during the month of January. The normal fixed price on this Brazilian style restaraunt is maybe $38 or so? Well, at half off, that's a great deal for those of us who live here and normally cannot afford tourist prices. Boy howdy, was that place crowded last Sunday. There were lines to get in lines just to register to get in line to eat. What a zoo, but it just goes to show you how popular these deals for locals have become.
We headed over the Liberty last Wednesday where it one the old "buy one get one free" deal, and our wait was like 1 hour. But in a lot of these places, the wait to try the places is really worth it because it gives us a chance to try places we normally wouldn't.
Some of these place continue their deals into February, so we're still trying our hand. In the meantime, we're also waiting for Hoskins to reopen.
TTFN - I'm outta here till the next time.
