Thursday - October 30

Bob: We took some pictures of the sights of St. Augustine this morning before we started for Arcadia. Also stopped at Walgreens and got some eye drops recommended by the pharmacist for Bonnie. She says her eye is beginning to feel better already. Her eye has been swollen, itching and watering for several days now. Arrived in Arcadia a little past three.

Bonnie:  We had fun taking pictures of some of the places we didn't have time to see yesterday. We saw the lighthouse across the bridge, took a picture of Ponce de Leon's statue, and looked at St. Augustine's Oldest Jail. The first Ripley's "Believe It or Not" is also in St. Augustine so we took a picture of the outside.  We also went to see the oldest Catholic parish where there is a huge cross that is 200' tall. There is a beautiful, peaceful park there.  After that we left for Ed and Lorraine's and arrived about 3:30 this afternoon.
