This is a journey through the Carolinas, from Greenville, South Carolina to mountainous Asheville, North Carolina. Greenville is a beautiful progressive area, with great local arts and entertainment scene plus breathtaking natural beauty as it is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. A drive up to Asheville and on the Blue Ridge Parkway reveals the spectacular beauty of the Blue Ridge mountain range and allows a visitor to partake in local events like the Bel Chere festival. This trip provides a tantalizing discovery of the 'flavor of the Southeast' and some of it's greatest treasures.
