St Augustine

 

Gigi and the fam were nice enough to give Jesse and me a day off alone while we're here in Fl. One of their friends were out of town so they let us use their house for a night. We had a good time, the best part was the house was just around the corner from their home so we didn't have to travel too far to get away. We spent the day in St Augustine which is the first and oldest city in the U.S. It's a cool town. There's a lot of shopping to do, places to eat, a bunch of history in that town. The coolest thing I thought was that all the stores were in the original buildings that were here when they first built the town. So it wasn't like they just built all the buildings to look old, they've been around since the 1500's or 1600's and on.. We went to the fountain of youth and drank from the spring. We also took a scenic cruise around St. Augustine which takes you around the city on water to the Light House Museum and around the area on water.. It was weird to play tourist for the day... we weren't sure what to do with ourselves but it was nice to pick and choose and have the option to blow the day if we wanted to for the day. I guess thats what happens when you've got kids! lol
