Thanks to The McKennas, for their help in yee olde St. Augustine.
Yesterday, I tied my boat up at 2pm when I arrived to St Augustine at Zach's dock where he operates a fantastic eco adventure company called St. Augustine Eco Tours. He runs a no compromise environmental education water based tour company. They are awesome guides, please check them out if you are in St. Augestine. I hung out in town for a while, I was a tourist though I didn’t get on the touristy streetcars, and I saw Flagger College and the old fort. I saw the St. Augustine cathedral and tons of funky art galleries and shops. I killed some more time in a rowdy local bar called trade winds. I met the McKennas who were coming back from Orlando from a wedding; they loaded me up on thousands of calories and then got to go to sleep in a bed for the first time in a week! This morning, Gracie served me up a glass of fresh squeezed vibrant pink juice she made. It was delicious and gave me the most unbelievable energy the whole day, I never got tired. When you check out my most recent pictures, please note that the picture I put up is just a temporary bridge, not the Bridge of Lions. The town is using this temp bridge while they renovate the other bridge. The locals were adamant about getting the bridge restored, not replaced. They are using this temporary 45 million dollar bridge lift bridge which can be put up in 2 weeks time while they restore the Bridge of Lions, which is regarded as the most beautiful bridge on a waterway, which I sadly don’t get to see. When the renovations are complete the large lions that it is famous for will be back up. Yesterday's location!
