St. Augustine

Jumping out into the Atlantic Ocean was delightful!!  Kinja was glad to stretch her canvas.  We did not have a lot of wind, but it was sunny and warm and we even saw a whale ...very cool.

We motored on  down the intercostal and arrived in St. Augustine on Thursday Jan. 29.  What a great place to spend a few days.  The city has retained a very Spanish heritage and old world charm.  It is a town with many historic landmarks.  In fact, it is the oldest continuously occupied city in the U.S.!   To give you an idea of how old the city is--it was founded the year after Michelangelo died and the year before Shakespeare was born !!  Many fun and unique restaurants (our favorite pastime).  Here are a few shots of St. Augustine....

We tied up at the Conch House Marina
