We landed in St Augustine today, it was only a 12 mile sail from our anchorage last night. We caught the current from the anchorage which kept us moving around 7 knots, the issue was all the anchorages close to town were jammed, so went up to one about 2 miles up river, while going to that anchorage, we almost ran aground, we were in charted depths of 14 feet, however we ended up in around 5.5 ft, which gave us an inch. so we backed out to deeper water and dropped the hook in the middle of the bay. We are suppose to have 2 nights of light wind, so we should be OK. Once off the boat we walked around town and toured the Castillo de San Marcos National Monument . It had a very interesting history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castillo_de_San_Marcos
Tomorrow we are going to take a full tour of the town, maybe even drink from the fountain of youth, so i should stay 45 forever.
