Well we continued down the road to Jacksonville then carried on over the Florida/Georgia Line (Country Group does "This is how We Roll")......seems fitting, I must admit...anyway....we checked into a camp ground called "Walk About Camp" run by a young couple from Brisbane, Australia.....man have they ever had a lot of rain...standing water everywhere! The "shiela" says they had eight inches in the last week...has flooded lots of their campground....glad we missed it!
Next day, we took a trip to a great little town called St. Mary's...quite quaint and of course, waterside which always adds to the experience.

From this location we headed back South of the campground and discovered Jekyl Island....home of some of America's oldest family "cottages"....names like Goodyear, etc. Amazing location and the beaches are home to a number of species of sea turtles that use the area for spawning/incubating. Sand for miles!
This days outing was followed by a trip down to St. Augustine just out of Jacksonville......what an amazing area with the Fort and protected sheltered harbour area...this is an area worth coming back to as a destination.
Jacksonville is just another big City, but short strikes out from there uncovers some great beaches and area to enjoy the sun....yes it was hot this day...got to 84 degrees!!!
