Castillo de San Marcos NM
St. Augustine Florida
Revisit, Date is 11-6-2010
Original visit: 2/20/2009
A monument not only of stone and mortar but of human determination and endurance, the Castillo de San Marcos symbolizes the clash between cultures which ultimately resulted in our uniquely unified nation. Still resonant with the struggles of an earlier time, these original walls provide tangible evidence of America’s grim but remarkable history. | ||

Today was actually a re-visit, since we liver hear and had been here previously. What made me go back was the fact that I discovered that they had an additional passport stamp here, one for the Gullah-Geechee NHC, so we added that one to the collection. This is a beautiful old fort right on the water here in the inlet. They have lots of volunteers doing reenactments here, the Boys saw them the last time we were here in April.
