My second trip back to St. Augustine was just as wonderful as the first. I visited a few new places: the brewery, the winery, and Lightner Museum, but the highlight of the trip was the Flagler College tour!

Plus, you can ride the Hogwarts Express between parks so it’s worth it. Here are my favorite rides:
