OSPREY WITH HIS PREY

We lifted anchor and left our cozy spot with light winds and glass calm water to head north.   Passing through Guana-Tolomato-Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve was a touch of original Florida with ample bird and water life scenes. 

Entering St. Augustine through The Bridge of Lions

St. Augustine is the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the United States.  It was first settled in 1565 as a Spanish military outpost.
