St. Augustine, FL to Palm Coast, FL

We are here!  Finally arrived in Palm Coast, FL around noon yesterday (Monday).  It was a short 25 mile trip from St. Augustine to Palm Coast and uneventful.  Here is the St. Augustine light as we are heading south toward Palm Coast.


It has been quite a ride these first several weeks of retirement and our adventure.  But what a ride it has been.  Things are very different now that we are cruising.  These are our modes of transportation.                                                                 
                                                                 Southern Style

My kayak

 We will miss New Bern, NC  Here are some memories of New Bern, NC
                       
                                                  Tryon Palace, the first govenor's mansion.

The Bern bears.                           
                                                            Farmer's market bear

                                                         
                                                            Downtown wooden bear.

Courthouse bear


Even though we will miss NC, it has been wonderful seeing so many things and stopping in so many interesting places.  And it is just the beginning of our adventure.

Palm Coast is a beautiful resort and I will get pictures of the area in the next day or two.  There is also a ton of water in which to kayak, so get ready to hopefully see some wildlife pictures.  We will be here for about 4 months this winter and I hope to post about weekly during our stay here in Palm Coast.
