We tried to escape our year of pandemic by driving to the beach in St. Augustine. The condo was beautiful, clean, and had a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of linens, and even some games and books to enjoy. Unfortunately, the cold weather followed us and we had high winds and below average temps for over half of our week. We only had one good sunset, but I'm sure they are amazing on clear nights. We did see a tortoise twice in addition to lizards and pelicans. The kids loved the ice maker, having their own TVs, and the heated pool right outside the door. We all enjoyed walks and collecting shells on the beach. We were surprised by the amount of vehicles driving by on the beach and the strength of the waves so just be aware if you have little ones. Even on cold days, we enjoyed exploring St. Augustine, eating outdoors, and listening to the roar of the ocean. Maybe someday we can come back and enjoy the sunsets!
