Day 24
So this morning we left our hotel and headed north on Hwy. A1A... we thought.  Actually, we were headed south.  We drove through heavy traffic for about an hour and then realized our mistake.  Miami has lots of tall buildings and very heavy traffic all the time.  On the west coast of  Florida, if you keep the ocean on your right side, you can be fairly sure you're going north.  But, if you can't see the ocean... Our original plan when we started out was to drop in on our friend Tom Bohn who lives north of Miami.  But Tom wasn't home.  So we just kept going to St. Augustine.  Lynne had set us up with another great hotel deal (free this time) and we checked in, went to dinner and then off to bed.  During the day, we passed the 5,000 mile mark on our trip odometer.  5,000 miles and we haven't turned around yet.  Pretty good on a continent that's 3,000 miles across.  I guess all that searching for frozen yogurt stands and nudie bars really added up.  We planned to spend some time in St. Augustine next day. It's the oldest European settled city in North America as well as the oldest in terms of continuous habitation.
