St Augustine, the oldest city in America, was very picturesque. There was really cool architecture and old historical buildings.

There were tons of restaurants, bars and shops, but it was a definite “tourist trap” environment. This is not how we roll, so it was a major turn off, and too bad because the city was really cool and had an interesting historical flavor.
