St. Augustine - January 20

Well I have been delinquent already on the blog!  Tempus is really fugit-ing already.  The boat is currently in St. Augustine.  We came via the following route:
 - Darien to St. Simons, spent 2 nights in St. Simons
 - St. Simons to Fernandina Beach - we caught up with friends there and had a wonderful dinner when we crashed Rick's birthday party!.....thank you for making us feel so welcome!
 - Fernandina to Mayport - we sailed outside into the mouth of the St. John's river at Mayport.  We spent the night at Mayport, but it was rough, high winds, and a lot of "heavy" cargo vessels passing us just a boat length away during the night.




- Mayport to Jacksonville Beach - wonderful little marina, Beach Marine.  We caught up with our "Geo-family" and spent time with Nandra and Rick, and Dave and Rachel.  We spent 2 nights here and had a great brunch together at Billy's.  Thank you to Maggie for being our taxi service!

 
Sunset at Nandra's


 - and today we arrived at St.Augustine.  What a wonderful city this is!  We had a great dinner at the Floridian, and plan to do more exploring here tomorrow before moving on.
