Sat 4/9
In the morning we went to the art fair in the Avondale park and then did the river walk and ended it under a huge bridge at another art fair (Riverdale). It was pretty hot so we didn’t continue to downtown, but got back home to refresh and head for St. Augustine. St. Augustine is the oldest town in the United States – established in 1513. It has some amazing sites – Castillo de San Marco, historic houses, a mission and a lighthouse where Marcelle had to attend an event. While she was there, we found a very cool beach restaurant and had a pitcher of beer right by the sand. Walking back from dinner, we went into Flagler College, a small college of 2500 student, which is housed in a magnificent building of the former luxury resort, Henry Flagler's first St. Augustine hotel, the Ponce de Leon.
