We had two nights booked in Charlottesville which meant we had a full
day there to really get to like the place.

We had a superb breakfast at the Bluegrass Cafe which set us up for
our historic walking tour to take in sights like the photo below of
the court house.

We then enjoyed a milkshake and watched the world go by on the
pedestrianised mall. All of America’s best towns seem to understand
that people like to walk sometimes!

In the evening we had a delicious meal at Bel Rio watching a flamenco/
jazz trio which was a very welcome change to the chain restaurants.
Finally we went for a beer at Fellini’s #9 and watched a local rock/
bluegrass band make some drunk people do some very bad dancing 🙂

Charlottesville is up there with our favourite US towns and we can see
why everyone that lived there seemed to be smiling.
