Florida Summer Vacation 2015 - St. Augustine

The second half of our vacation week was spent at my Great Aunt Wilma & Uncle Jack's beach house in Ponte Vedra, just north of St. Augustine.  The weather continued to stay hot and sunny so we decided to be tourists this time and visit the downtown area that we had not done on our previous 3 or  4 visits. We toured the Colonial Quarters, Pirate Museum and Governor's House on the first day, along with Elise (Kim joined us at the beach with a couple of her kids).

The boys loved the ocean water and wanted to run right into it, full speed.  We let them play in it for only about 30 minutes at a time as the sun was so hot. 

On another day, we toured the downtown area again as well as Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum and the Fountain of Youth.  Vince & I both drank the luke warm water from the springs. Vince said it tasted like "Florida water." The oldest school house was downtown.

This was a statue of the fattest man.

We had a great visit at the beach and enjoyed playing tourists this time as well as visiting our relatives.
