St Augustine, FL
Today was a much better day to travel than yesterday. We made it to St Augustine this afternoon. Settled in 1586, it is the oldest continuously occupied city and port in the US. The population is only around 12,000, so rather a small city. Tomorrow we plan to check it out. From the water it looks very pretty, with a fort and what appears to be a big church. Our friend Mary says they have a nice trolley tour. The city has a huge marina and 2 large mooring fields. One of the boats seen this evening was from England.

St. Augustine is a VERY interesting place. Take Sue's picture in front of the old school...it's standard procedure! We enjoyed the fort although a cold front came through and it was blowing like stink! We huddled in the lee of the wall and crowd to see the cannons fired.
