Late as always but here it is... Between the 26th of July and the 5th of August I had 2 visitors from Sweden (also some vacation from the family, well needed). The two visitor weren't just anybody. It was my lovely sister and dad. Unfortanetly my mom couldn't join us due to medical issues. I was very sad about that and missed her a lot. However I had to get over that fact and with help of todays technology we could at least talk with her a few times when we all were gathered. This post will be in several parts as a lot happend and don't wanna make one suuuuper long post.
But now to the point, let's go!
26th of July I was working all day but something awsome happend that afternoon, my dad and sister landed up in Charlotte and drove down to the hotel in Columbia. So nothing special happend this day so lets move on. Well I did pack my bags so that's something.
27th of July I got picked up by my dad and sister and finally got to meet them. It was the first time in over 6 months that I got to meet them in person. It was an amazing feeling flowing through me as I saw them. I got all my stuff into the car and we went to a nice diner called Flight Deck. Inspired by old aircrafts.
On the 28th me and my dad dropped off my sister at a mall so she could do her shopping (Boooring). Me and my dad went to South Carolina Military Museum. A cool museum having artifacts from the revolutionary war until todays conflicts.

After the museum we picked up my sister and we all went for lunch at a nice asian resturant. From that we continued with dropping my sister off again. Me and my dad went to the Beef Jerky Outlet. A store filled with Beef Jerkey pretty much. With all kinds of different varieties, even weird jerkeys like kangaroo, alligator, elk and some other unusual meat. From Beef Jerkey to an awsome milkshake at Marble Slab Creamery. Also an awsome picture:

After a dip in the pool at the hotel we went out for dinner at The Melting Pot. A cheese fondue resturant which was delicous.

The 29th started with a trip to Walmart to get some snacks for our trip to Lake Murray. We chilled out a bit at the public beach of Lake Murray. The lake had very muddyish water where you barley could see what was infront of you. You definently couldn't see your feet but it was nice to cool off from the heat. When getting up from the water my sister got very scared as there was a snake that also wanted get up from the water. (Not sure who scared who to be honest). She also made a new bestie, a dead fish floating around in the water.

After the Lake we went to a Kmart to check it out. It was a kinda crappy low cost store. We then went back to the hotel and chilled out.
