A change of plans
“We made a mistake!” Kurt yelled this morning.
“What?” I was still slightly groggy from just being awakened.
“We made a mistake! One of the sites we're visiting is an inn! We should have
stayed there last night,” he said.
“Oh.”
“What do you say we stay one more night in St. Augustine. We stay at the St.
Francis Inn. What do you think?” Kurt asked.
We were doing well time wise; it wasn't taking the week I expected it to
take. One more day wouldn't hurt us. “Why not? But better call first to see
if they have any rooms available,” I said.
Kurt picked up the phone and called. He talked to the owner, Tom, for a few
minutes then asked about the rooms. Then he turned to me. “They only have two
rooms available,” he said to me. “But the two rooms are the haunted ones!”
“Get them,” I said, getting interested.
“Okay.” He then made arrangements for one of the rooms. I guess we'll be
staying another night in St. Augustine.
We then made plans for the day. Check out of the hotel, then hit Castillo De
San Marcos, the main fort in St. Augustine. Then lunch at 46 Ave Menendez,
which is also known locally as Harry's Seafood Bar Grille. After lunch, check
into the St. Francis Inn, then hit the Light Keeper's House.
Then, off to Castillo De San Marcos.
