Highlights

I took over 1,800 pictures during our trip to St. Augustine. We stopped in Charleston, SC on the way down, stayed in a condo on the beach just south of St. Augustine (crescent beach). We spent one day at Disney's Animal Kingdom; the rest of the time we bummed around St. Augustine and enjoyed the beach. Here are some highlights.
