3. St. Augustine is charming. I only saw it for an afternoon and hope to return soon.

There's so much to do, visit and walk through the old town, see the Spanish architecture, the old fort. I find St. Augustine, New Orleans and Santa Fe some of the most lovely places to visit in the US because I like history, art, architecture, gardens and diverse cultures. Many Americans are unaware of the early history of the Americas before English domination in the North. The early influences in North American and the Caribbean of Native Americans, blacks, the Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Swedish and Danish in the Caribbean are not taught nearly enough.
