San Diego

After touring Saint Augustine we learned that the Old Spanish Trail that our bike route was following actually ends in San Diego. And the Tallahassee cyclist we saw was arrested for exposing his genitals. Yikes!!!

DC and Gettysburg

We spent this morning in Washington DC and the afternoon at Gettysburg. There was a lot more security and roads blocked in DC today. My guess is because the Pres. went out for a hamburger and Lincoln Memorial had a lot going on too. Gettysburg was very interesting we have seen a lot of history and are very tired so we are heading home. See you soon.

Washington DC

We tried to go to Tangier Island but, they were having a funeral and all the boats (1) were full. So on to D.C. my feet are so tired and sore we went to about 4 museums more tomorrow.

Pics: Road to Tangier, Agri Globe, Arts and Industrial Bldg., Air and Space did you know the Wright bros. were avid cyclist and Orville raced?

I added 2 pics to previous day.

And yes I am moving a lot faster than by bike.

Historical Virginia

Today we visited the homes I lived in as a child and teenager. Then on to Jamestowne, Williamsburg, Yorktown and across the Cheasapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Pocahontas does not look anything like the Disney version. The Cheasapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel pic is of the tunnel the first tunnel is from the rocks to the island.

Outer Banks NC

We drove along the Outer Banks of North Carolina looking for the wild horses. Went to Kitty Hawk home of the first flight and just wandered around.

Charleston SC to Jacksonville NC

I met up with a really good friend and her children in Charleston and we toured some historical homes and Fort Sumter. April 12, 1861 first shot of the Civil War fired upon Fort Sumter. Then up the coast through Myrtle Beach and into Jacksonville NC.

Pics: Shark Attack, Two Southern Bells under the Magnolias, Veronica and her family, history.

St Augustine, Fl to Savannah, S.C.

It is so... boring riding in a car even taking the scenic routes. These are some photos from my journey. The Spanish Moss covered trees were taken on Sea Island on a plantation. The others in Savannah.
