Cybertrips: Scan the Web for holiday vacation ideas
Take in a little history and a lot of food at Charleston, S.C. www.charlestoncvb.com/xmas where the entries in "Tours & Attractions" include the nightly Progressive Dinner, an elegant dining experience combined with a carriage tour. The James Island County Park is lit up for a Holiday Festival of Lights, and mansions and plantations including the Edmonston-Alston House are decorated for holiday tours. Take time to click on "Cuisine" for details on Christmas dinner at Magnolias and a holiday treat called Chocolate Seductions, available every day in December.
The city is still recovering from Katrina, but New Orleans can always put on a Christmas party tinyurl.com/26ldyq with events including concerts, caroling, services at St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter, and tours of historic homes. New Orleans means parties, but it also means food, especially for the holidays. Click on "Reveillon Menus" for a sampler of what you might enjoy at places like Brennan's, Arnaud's or the Gumbo Shop. Some of the hotels have "Papa Noel Rates" for the holidays, and they have suggestions for shopping.
