St. Augustine Florida

We went to St. Augustine for a day and half trip. St. Augustine is the oldest and first permanent European settlement in the United States. Grace has been studying Florida history for school and it focuses a lot on St. Augustine. So when my mother in law was down for the week. We decided to spend some time exploring and learning about this part of Florida. The kids all enjoyed exploring a new place. Grace in particular found it fascinating since she knew the history of everything. She thought it was cool to actually see and be in the very places that she had read and seen pictures of from her history book.
