DESTINATION: South of the Bordei DIRECTIONS: Take 1-20 to Florence, where it runs into 1-95. Take 1-95-N toward Dillon and stop at the sombrero. Don't worry if you feel lost-the billboards will lead the way. The trip of 104 miles will take about an hour and 45 minutes. ??:ui., nlnnn In tha UUIlt; }JUi&IUiy UIC iai/(\IC0l \J lai/C ill world, the road to South of the Border is lined with dozens of hokey billboards leading to... a giant sombrero towering over 350 acres of the most certifiably cheezy attractions imaginable. Still, it is an experience not to missed, especially if you have the digestive constitution to handle the chili dog. Places to eat At South of the Border, you can get everything from fine prime rib to delicious Mexican food. Just don t forget the Turns. The Sombrero Room Restaurant and Pedro's Coffee Shop offer fine family dining. Pedro's Hot Tamale, Diner and Hot Dog Stand offers what is quite probably the meanest chili dog on the east coast. Don't eat one unless you plan to spend the night. Las Maracas features steaks, prime rib and seafood. Pedro's Ice Cream Fiesta features twenty tasty flavors of frozen dairy deliciousness. ? i [Bat; r 2 HF A A A A -jfw * IQp " f t f. was tup uiuiucDCiTv ni H O nil E C O M) I IU/G "^*CAROUNA*^^^> the USC vs. EA!
