Savannah-Saint Agustine

After leaving early from Charleston more south, we reached savannah, Georgia, a nice city with beautiful squares and avenues full of trees with spanish moss falling from their branches. One of those squares was the place where some scenes of Forrest Gump was filmed! 

Later, we sropped to eat near the border between Georgia an Florida in a restaurant called Sony's, where we ate barbecued-styled pulled pork. When we finally reached Florida, we saw from the road Jacksonville, the state's most populous city. 

After a while, we arrived in St. Agustine, the very first settlement in America that reminds today. But first, we went to Vilano beach, suposed to be visited by sea turtles and manatees. Like yesterday, the water is much warmer than in Spain, being the same ocean! 

Then, after spending a couple of hours there, we visited the city of Saint Agustine, visiting a spanish fort, called "Castillo de San Marcos" and probably the only monument in honour of the spanish constitution of 1812 in the western hemisphere. Also, we saw the oldest existing house in North America!

At last, we went to an outlet to buy some clothes near our hotel. Then, tomorrow, we are going to go to the Mexican Gulf and some beaches in the floridan part of it.
