Jeremy and Katie's St. Augustine Extravaganza!

Date: September 27, 2009

The trip is officially two weeks away, and I think we're both about to go insane with anticipation. We've been planning this for about three months now, and we've almost got everything in order...we think. We've scoped out restaurants and attractions and have our must-see items marked. The Jacksonville Zoo has been incorporated into the trip. I've been once, and it's a beautiful zoo. We're going to stop there on our way to St. Augustine on Sunday. Since the Alligator Farm consists mostly of reptiles and because I'm such a lover of animals (primarily mammals), zoos are a MUST for any vacation we go on, so Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens satisfies this quota.

We're planning to leave from my sister's house in Meansville, GA around 5:00am on Sunday, October 11. From her house it takes about 5 hours to get to Jacksonville, so we should be at the zoo around 10:00 or 10:30. I can hardly wait! We'll spend Saturday with my sister and Baby Garrett and set off on Sunday! Coincidentally, my mom leaves for a trip to see my dad on the same day. She's going to Massachusetts, Maine, and New Hampshire. She's also looking forward to her trip. She'll fly out on Sunday and return on Saturday, October 17. We'll swing by the Atlanta Airport that day to pick her up and round off both of our trips.
