Travels to Charleston Part 4

On Friday, we were able to go to Fort Sumter.  This is the fort where the Civil War (war of the states) officially started.  We took a boat out to the little 2.5 acre island.
The National Park service has reconstructed the fort but it really does not look anything like what it looked like when it was originally attacked.  They also had a small museum that still had the original flag that was flying when the fort was attacked.  It was a lot of fun to see and the boat ride was nice as well.
