Castillo De San Marcos National Monument

Hubby and I spent our anniversary at Saint Augustine, Florida. There's so much to see in this little town and I am still trying to show you some historic places which have that charm. On this scorcher day, we are headed to Castillo de San Marcos.There is a meter parking lot in this area located just across the park. Sometimes, the parking is FREE too. the entrance in this park was only $10 for both of us and Senior Citizen was given a card with FREE entrance to all parks in the US.There were tourists who visited the place in groups with a tourist guide.
The place is crowded and later that afternoon they have to fire the canon.
Knowing the history of this place is sad and at the same time it made me appreciate more the sacrifices of our troops who are assigned in other countries.
If you want to visit this place, you can't miss it once you are heading to Old City and passing by the Lion's Gate, you make the right turn and this place is just stood there at the bay area.
