St. Augustine, Florida
America's "Ancient City" has many areas to visit, including Flagler College, Lightner Museum, Castillo de San Marcos and of course the old city itself.
| John's Trip Comments | Does not require more than a day to visit (including a tour of Castillo de San Marcos) and the narrow streets (no motorized vehicles allowed) make you feel you are walking on a wide sidewalk. More unique shops compared to many tourist locations make for a slow liesurely stroll with many opportunities to stop for lunch or dinner. Would recommend spending an evening in the area if at all possible. |
| John's Personal View | I like historic St. Augustine and consider it to be one of my favorite places to visit. The shopping experience is unique as you can literally walk across the street ( maximum of 20 feet ) within a few steps and the stores never seem to wider than 20-30 feet. I definitely know that Kathy loves it, as we have always brought something back that is different than most tourism locations. Also when your feet begin to ache, there is always a pub where you can sit back, relax and listen to some great music. |
Or Try this accomodation in the Historic downtown area.
