A to Z Blogging Challenge - St. Augustine

http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/




Castillo de San Marcos
I have been visiting St. Aug all of my life and I even lived there for a few years in my early 20s, and would do so again if I could. So if you like sailing, forts, or sight-seeing of ALL kinds, history, good eating, beaches, horse drawn carriage rides, walking, bike riding, festivals, wineries, distilleries, more good food, beautiful B &B’s, draw breath… then St. Augustine is the place you want to be.

Carriage rides run all day. Bridge of Lions in the back...
Okay, I’m going to have to rein myself in here a bit because this town is one of my top, perhaps THE top town in my opinion in North Florida. St. Augustine is the oldest “city” in the nation. But that isn’t its only claim to fun. I can’t even begin to list all the things there are to do, or see, or eat. There are just toooo many. So I will give you links and I will give you visuals. And, I hope you will one day (if you haven’t already) have a chance to spend some time here. 


Flager Museum across from Flagler College

The bay front at night.

This statue is famous and has been stolen numerous times!

The Mill Top, a favorite local hangout-turned-tourist haven.

Pirates have more fun!
Restaurants I recommend:
For its Gelato...Cafe Del Hidalgo
