This is pretty Accurate. St Augustine beach is a pretty chill area with some decent seafood restaurants. My 4 and 6 year olds really liked the lighthouse. I'm not sure how old the little bones are, but they've made it really kind friendly. If they're older, then definitely do a ghost tour of downtown.Plenty of touristy things in St. Augustine. The old fort is cool, and the first wooden school house in America is worth seeing. The Fountain of Youth is hokey, you could skip it and be fine.
I would also recommend checking out the lighthouse, and Flagler College. It’s a really old beautiful campus. The ghost tours at night are fun too.
Kids are 2 and 6. Ghost tour for sure!!!
How long do you have? STA is cool but it’s a poor mans Charleton, which IMO is the coolest city that I’ve been to. You can spend 4 days in Charleston and see/do/learn something new every day. And the food is world class.
It’s about a 4 hour drive north of STA. If you go in summer you can get great hotel discounts since it’s so damn hot.
We did Charleston in late July the first time and our hotel in downtown was $160 a night; went back the following March and it was $380 a night
Charleston is an amazing city. It goes Charleston, Savannah then St. Augustine from worst to best for me on the “historical southern city tour”.
My wife and I took our honeymoon in Savannah. Good times.
What kind of a loser takes a week long family vacation to St. Augustine?
Apparently I do. Does being a Douchebag come naturally to you or do you have to try hard at it?
For what it’s worth we are here until a Wednesday and then we are hitting Disney for the rest of the week. Staying on-property and hitting all 4 parks. Nothing special, we have annual passes but it’s nice to be able to park and take the busses everywhere.

You’ve got STA above Charleston??
Big fan of Anatasia Island State Park. Nice beach, not too touristy because it's a state park.

It's all about yourself, be a hedonist!You know, hat's off to the dude for taking his family on vacation. It might be all that he can afford with children in tow. Shit changes when you have kids and your expectations kinda get lowered.
Don't be a dick.

Only a pathetic pissant would criticize someone for taking their family on vacation.

Benadryl.At least now I know why he gets so much hate around here. He never said a word to me either way until that post.
As far as what I can afford, it’s more like where we can go that doesn’t require a long drive each way. I love my kids but they are horrible in the car for extended periods of time.
Every Thanksgiving week we rent a cabin in North GA / Western NC and chill there for 7 days. Really nice weather and change of scenery. But the 9-10 hour drive gets stretched-out to over 12 hours with kids and it’s unbearable.
My wife and I are planning a cruise for just us 2 next March and have a trip to England in the works as well. On the fence about bringing the kids over there until they are over 10.
MOJO is good all around jaxIt’s an okay city. Good with kids. Do the touristy things. Watch out for some weird fellows at night on George Street. Do a ghost tour.
Mojo Old City BBQ is some good bbq. They have some great little British pubs/restaurants.
its funny because in the dungeon he is actually ok. but for some reason he feels the need to be a dick in here even to people hes never interacted with before.At least now I know why he gets so much hate around here. He never said a word to me either way until that post.

he must lead a very sad life.
btw, leave the kids at home for england. cruise is probably ok though.
Well, the cruise we have in mind is thrown by our favorite band 311. They do one every 2 years and we’ve never had a chance to go. Definitely not taking the kids for that one!
