Tiny Paper Houses
This photo was taken inside a little coffee shop in St. Augustine. Originally, it was the first school of the city. It was repurposed as a coffee house. Some of the old colonial furniture still remains. It keeps the little whimsical school feel. From all the tiny items, my favorite things were the paper houses. They seemed like quite the adorable little craft project. They were just sort of there, tucked in a corner. Hardly anyone giving them a single glance. I took a photo of them to preserve their essence. As with most paper projects, it does not take...
St. Augustine Random Bar Photo
This photo shows the bar of a restaurant we visited while in St. Augustine. It was near the historical fort. The tour guide from hell suggested we visited the place. He was tired of walking and so we had to stop there. It was not a half bad place. It had plenty of cookie decorations. I never drink, but I can appreciate the work put into this bar. I cannot say the date of the bar. It could be modern or from the 50s. Everything in that city was old. At least there is plenty to look at with the...
St. Augustine Entrance
St. Augustine is the oldest city in the US. It was founded in 1565. It is full of old architecture. It makes you appreciate the colonial buildings. A lot of them look perfect even after 400 years. Modern builders need to take lessons from the past. Most buildings made after the years 1900s have fallen already. A good portion were destroyed by man's hands, but the rest have pretty much fallen on their own. There has been a disassociation between architects and physicist. Now people who design most buildings focus too much on the look and not whether they are...
Everglades I think
While traveling to St. Augustine we passed real close to the Everglades. The Everglades is the largest wilderness in Florida. It is not the safest place to hang out. Outsiders keep adding strange and dangerous species to the Everglades. Aside from the pythons, now we have Nile Crocodiles and Catfishes. Aside from a dumping grounds of invasive species, the Everglades is the favorite haven of people into criminal activities. Recently, the cops were looking for a dead girl whose car was suspected to be there. In addition to finding the girl, they also dug up like 100 different other cars....
Schooner Sailing in Miami Beach
Miami Beach is such a great looking place. Pity that it has jerks making decisions about the place. Recently, there was a law that passed that hotels could make beaches private. They own everything piece of beach before them, except for the wet sand. The hilarious thing about it is that you need to get through their wet sand to making it to the beach. There is a hotel in like every square patch of sand. So, now Miami Beach is only for foreigners staying in the hotels, not for the locals. It's a good thing I took plenty of...
