Well, it was a long, busy day. You needed some rest before your trip back to Menomonie. Thank you for spending the day with me!

More shells, really big again. And gem stones.


Hey, Simon, watch out, that shark will eat you!
Next, we check out a really big sponge and some really big seashells and a really big starfish. I don't know if you know this, but sponges grow at the bottom of the ocean floor.

One of our first stops in the museum, a shrunken head!


Here we are, The Lightner Musuem. There is a wonderful garden maze that we have to walk through before we can enter the museum. AJ LOVES this maze. Also, a really pretty water fountain.


Back out on the street and what do we see, a pirate! St. Augustine has a lot of pirate statues!
Alright, now we are headed toward the Lightner Museum. The Lightner Museum has many cool things that tell us all about St. Augustine. On the way to the museum, we stop at Potters Wax Museum. You posed for pictures with Michael Jordan and Elvis Presley!


Okay, so here we are, at the marina. Look down - it is an oyster bed!


After we check out Ponce De Leon, we head over to the Marina. On the way we look at architecture and play a round of miniature golf. You won!

After class, we head downtown. I want to show you the statue of Ponce De Leon in the City Plaza. On the way, we look at some beautiful flowers.


After I drop AJ off at school, I then head over to my school. You are spending the day with me Simon! Here is what we saw on the way to my office.




8:00 am. Simon, AJ and I are off to school.
