More of St. Augustine

Top of the Morning to you Lovlies!

Come along for a Carriage ride or nice bike ride

and let's explore a little more of St. Augustine.

We took the carriage ride once years back with our children

when we visited and it was really a fun and relaxing time.

It is one of my favorite memories of St. Augustine and

Savannah, Georgia when we there years ago as well.

This was just a pretty lil square on the corner in the

area where the shops were, it was all fenced off too.

Wish I knew what the statue represented but didn't

say anything on the fencing anywhere as to what it was.

This was growing in a pot near a ceramic store

and the bits of yellow and orange you see coming thru it

are a ceramic sun. I know the name of this plant

but it escapes me at the moment, maybe it will

come to me before I finish.

Just found out from one of my lovely blogger friends,

that this plant is called Agapantha. I knew it started

with an A, was thinking Alessia, and checked but

couldn't find a picture.

Thanks, Noreen for the information,

You're a sweetie.

Took this cause I just thought it was funny with the lil ceramic chickens peeking out of it, this was in the same ceramic shop area.

You can see all the pretty pots in the background.

This was also in the same ceramic shop, loved their planterson the wall, course, they sell them there, but thought it was a nice shot.

You'll probably think I am a lil crazy on this one, but I was fascinated by the roots on the night blooming Jasmine, and it was growing out of a small black pot (a 2 qt. pot that you buy them in)Wait till you see what it grew into. I thought it was one of the wonders of nature.

The whole top of this lanai was covered with it.

Happened to see this painted on a wall in this lil alcove area,took it thinking it probably wouldn't come out but decided totake it anyway. I was practically on top of it taking the picture.Was amazed at how well it came out. Never hurts to try!!

These last shots were all taken as we were walking to try and find the parking lot where we left our car. It was a nice walkwith pretty scenery. That was where we saw the carriage ride at the beginning as well.

Oh yea, This was a Bed & Breakfast

This was another bed and breakfast right next to the other one.

Thought this was just a quaint lil sitting area,kinda wanted to sit there myself, but it was in someones yard so thought I best not. ha!

This beautiful old Victorian Home caught my eye because it was freshlypainted and I loved the color scheme. They have lot of old homes like these but many are white or many are very weathered.

and that Fella, would be my honey, looks like he dressed to match the picture.

Here is a nice close up of the door!! Can you tell I like this house. ha!!

And last but certainly not least, is the big beautiful Methodist Church, the orange parts are actually made of clay, another tourist told me, she heard it when the carriage driver was giving his tour guide talk.

Well, dearies........... The Methodist church completes our tour,

I saved the Best for last, it was right where we left our car

so we found our car and drove off into the Sunset

towards home.

See ya tomorrow,

Thanks for stopping In, I have been thinking about building an Ark

it has been raining soooooooo much, course, I am thankful for God's reminder

Rainbow that says he will never flood our earth again. ha

Have a good one!!

Blessings, Nellie


P.S. Alice hope you had another great trip down memory lane, Glad you enjoyed it so much.
