St Augustine, Saturday

Up about 7am. I ended up in the big bed while Corey took the bunk bed and Darla sacked out in the couch (she likes tv sound to sleep to).

We watched squirrels at the fire pit and a bird popped on my phone. We had breakfast at Zabba’s Coffee…I had a fried donut. After that we headed for St Augustine proper. Before that we made a quick stop at an arts and crafts show. After that we drove to the city. We saw Flagler College, the Lightner Museum and many beautiful courtyards.

We stopped at a chocolate store for gelato and the lady working there was hilarious. She played “Isn’t She Lovely” for our birthdays. Next we stopped and got tickets to the jail and haunt. We ended up on St George Street, saw the grinch playing violin and saw some pirates. Next we went to the Castillo de San Marco fort. We climbed up the sea wall and saw dolphins and a sea turtle. By this point Darla and I were pretty pooped so we headed back to the parking area.

We hit Publix after cursing Corey’s GPS. Found out we were on the wrong island…apologized to the GPS and followed the directions back to Anastasia Island.
After a quick stop at the house we went to Crabby’s for dinner and had a seafood broil. Then we went to see the lighthouse but it was closed. I took pics anyway.Read more
