Stormy clouds

Dear UK

Weather changed, storm last night. Felt lovely sitting on a porch of a Victorian house snug in a rocking chair listening to the downpour.

Settled in St Augustine in the end. Went to Cassablinkingdaga, quaint in its way. Of course the worse weekend, or the best depending on your view, to go there. Halloween. Big thing for all these clairvoyants. The town was actually quite cute and when all the Halloween dressing is taken down, probably looks even better. Its definitely a fun place, not to be taken seriously. The place was fully booked, a year in advance apparently. Well it probably seemed like that to the totally spaced out old hippies.....

St Augustine seems good. Lots of history. Didn't know that and, so it would seem do many Americans..... Just off on a trolley tour, old jail house, old wooden house, old something or another. And actually it is quite old. The British took it from the Spanish in the 1800's. Good old Francis Drake, burn the city to the ground so that they know you mean business.

Anyway I have Snoop Dog playing on the tv behind me and a couple of Dudes trying to sort out a pot of 'half and half' behind this cafe's counter. I just love being a tourist...........xxxxxx
