More on St. Augustine

We travel a lot, so people often comment about how great it must be to see so many different places. The truth is we don’t often see much. We meet great people all over, but mostly we see the bus, the hotel & the church. There are exceptions though. We spent a few days in St. Augustine. The town is a bit overrun by tourists but there is much to reccomend it and a few things to make you think. It’s the oldest city in the United States. The Cathedral is on the site where Mass was first said in 1565.
The Hilton hotel sits on the site of the Monson Motel where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested in 1964. Each of us has a different background, a different set of interests which informs our view. But there is something there for each of us to take away…when we have the time to look. 🙂
