St. Augustine, Florida (02.2010)

This small city of approximately 12,000, is the oldest continually occupied settlement in the United States. First visited by Spanish explorer, Ponce de León in 1513, it was settled by Juan Menendez de Aviles almost half a century before the first English settlers arrived. A lovely little town for a quick get-away.
