We arrived in St. Augustine on Friday, and after securing a mooring went in for happy hour at a local pizza parlor. St. Augustine is a beautiful town, founded in 1565, with predominantly Spanish architecture. This is by far my favorite stop in Florida, and would love to come back here again. We stopped here on the way south, and met Makana here for the first time. There are several cobblestone streets, closed to traffic, with pretty boutiques, and restaurants. Courtney, Katie, and I went to a wine tasting yesterday which was great, with lots of laughs. The husbands kept all the kids at a field near the fort for bocce, golf, and kite flying. The park rangers came by and put a stop to the kite flying, as 2 string kites aren't allowed near the fort! Seemed a little random, but I suppose they can swoop down and crash pretty hard. This morning John and I dropped the kids off at Dharma and went to a bakery for breakfast (chocolate croissants, my favorite!). This afternoon the kids played miniature golf, while the parents all used computers in the marina lounge to pay bills, update blogs, and search for dream boats.
There's a storm coming, so we're staying put at this marina until it passes. Our plan right now is to head north on Tuesday, jumping out at the St. John inlet, and hopefully getting as far as Charleston or Beaufort.
