Spring Break Part 4 - The Journey to Blacksburg

Well, Wednesday started like all the other days. We took our time getting up and out. Middleton Place? Will have to wait for another time. The rest of Charleston too. Around noon we were finally packed up and eating lunch at an IHOP. We talked about trying to squeeze something else in, but decided it would be best to get on the road. We pulled into Blacksburg/Christiansburg around 7pm that evening at my friend's house. They had made reservations for a Japanese Steak House called Kabuki.

They eat there often and are very familiar and friendly with the staff. Our chef was fantastic and quite interesting. He told us he was from Nepal, and had climbed Mt Everest as a Sherpa twice.

We had a great time and were well rested for the beginning of our backpack adventure the next day.
