AND THEN VISITED THE OLDEST CITY IN AMERICA - ST. AUGUSTINE

 IN FRONT OF THE STEPS TO THE MUSEUM AND INSIDE THE MUSEUM

 
 
 

CASTILLO DE SAN MARCO

Castillo de San Marcos was for many years the northernmost outpost of Spain's vast New World empire.  It is the oldest masonry for and the best-preserved example of a Spanish colonial fortification in the continental United States

 THE FAMILY GOT IN FREE BECAUSE WE HAD A SENIOR PASS TO NATIONAL PARKS AND HISTORICAL PLACES (wish we would have known that in San Juan instead of taking the tour)

 COAT OF ARMS CHISELED INTO THE STONE

 

 WE VISITED THE OLD CITY, WE EVEN SAT IN FOR A FEW MINUTES DURING SUNDAY MASS.  THIS IS THE OLDEST CHURCH IN ST. AUGUSTINE

 

 THE OLDEST HOUSE IN ST. AUGUSTINE, DATING FROM THE EARLY 1700's
