I’ve done one of the carriage rides in Charleston. Very cool and hope to do it again someday.
The routes differ and even the driver doesn’t know which one you get to take until they basically draw from a hat.
I’d have probably taken down Rex myself if that happened while I was there.
I’ve also just written about those magnificent carriage rides. Everyone should take one. Or more.
My first was scary and maybe a little too “sexy” for one older gent. My two year old wouldn’t stay on the seat or lap. She insisted on happily sitting at my feet on the open sided carriage. She was quiet and didn’t disturb anyone so I didn’t want to pull her up and have her cry and ruin the drive for the other tourists on our carriage.
But she was only a few scary feet up from the pavement and carriage wheels. In order to keep her from falling through, I had to basically bend over and hold a rail against a strangers leg in the seat ahead of me. He didn’t move his leg so my hand, trying to close the gap to keep my baby safe, was against his thigh the whole ride. Who knows, maybe he was enjoying it.
