The VICTORY Was...well....a Victory

"Mimi and Nana's Adventure Tours"

With four little ones in tow,

all under the age of four,

we knew

the Victory III

would be a big hit.

 

 

 

And it was!

 

This is a great hour-plus scenic ride starting at the city marina,

traveling up the Matanzas River, around the St. Augustine Inlet,

and then down Salt Run.

 

It goes under the Bridge of Lions,

passes the Castillo De San Marcos,

and from almost every turn, you can glimpse

our beloved lighthouse, which seemed to be the kids' favorite.

Throughout the ride,

 one of them would excitedly shout out "I see the lighthouse!"

                                                                                                                                                                                      (Picture credit-Sherry)

and all heads would turn.

 

During the ride, you see a beautiful view of the historic district skyline,
 and I can't forget to mention that we

coast pass Sherry's Vilano.

Did I mention that St. John's County residents are half price
and kids under four are free!
win/win

 

                                          going under the Bridge of Lions

 

 

 

 

                                          Spotting the fort...

 

                                          "A pirate ship!"

 

  

 

It was an adventure I'm sure we will recreate!

Post boat ride,

thank you "Monkey Ball"

for being so entertaining while we waited for our food...

no money involved...lol!

And this reminds me why I could NEVER EVER

be a professional child photographer...

 

even with an assistant...



 

 What a wonderful time that was had by all

and, as a bonus,

 home in time for naps!
