Arrive in St Augustine and took a tour of the old town on the Old Town Trolly. Loved the old Flagler Hotels, the Ponce De Leon built in 1888, now the Flagler College, and the Alcazar built in 1889, now a museum. Had dinner at the other hotel in town built in 189? to compete with Flagler, which he bought a year after it opened after bankrupting the owner/developer. (BOOOOOO). Great old architecture, furnishings and food. Tours next day of the old Alligator Farm (saw an albino alligator and lots of beautiful birds) and then toured the Flagler College. Friday, Mike and Robin and Amanda Horner all join us for overnight on the boat, and more touring. We made use of their car and went grocery shopping and made a trip to the outlet mall and Lewis Marine. Funny, the things you miss without a car,
KOKOMO II completed the "Great Loop" over three summers from May 2007 to November 2009. The cruising plan for 2010 is from Stuart, Florida, up the Intercoastal Waterway to the Chesapeake, down the Delaware and around to NYC and up the Hudson to Lake Champlain, the Richelieu to Montreal, then west on the St Lawrence River to the 1000 Islands and Kingston, then across Lake Ontario to Oswego, the Erie Canal, down the Hudson to NYC and back to Stuart. kokomox2@yahoo.com
