[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 711343, member: 11832"] Well, the train ride was arduous, but still better than driving for me. Our visit with my relatives was lovely. My cousin has a house one block from the beach. We all walked to beach and enjoyed it for about 20 minutes. We had a great dinner, and my Aunt Charlotte was happy to see us. She looks like she is about 70; no one would ever guess that she is 100. I took them some very old pictures of our relatives which was a great ice breaker. We really enjoyed my cousin, her husband and my mom's first cousin. Driving around Jacksonville was tough for me, but I coped. Candy and I went to St. Augustine the next day and enjoyed the sights there. We went to the Ripley's Believe It or Not Odditorium, a Spanish fort, and visited a bunch of little shops. It's quite the tourist town. The following day, we walked around Jacksonville and had lunch by the river. I had an interesting conversation with a man who lives on a boat. He was telling me how different living on the river is. I don't think I would like it as he was kept awake by a party at the restaurant which continued until 4 am. I'm too old for that stuff. We survived the return train trip. I swear, I think they blow that whistle every 2 minutes. How was your trip? [/QUOTE]
