Yesterday, we met up with people from the Central Florida Steampunk Association for a full day of shopping in St. Augustine, the nation's oldest city.


We started at the Visitors' Center at noon and made our way through the City Gates.

St. Augustine is one of those places that is so full of costumed re-enactors all year long, that people in historic-based costumes don't seem that out of place as they wander from shop to shop.


There were lots of fun shops to look in, a hat shop, a pirate store, handmade soaps, tea and spices, and vintage clothing were just a few we visited.




One of the things I really love about St. Augustine is the street venders and musicians, who make the shopping district so much more vibrant and colorful.

This man made some very clever, wrapped wire jewelry using computer circuit boards.


This very friendly one-man-band tried to get his dog, Maggie May, to sing for us.

Oh my gosh, it sounds like you both had the most entertaining day!!! So jealous. ;)
So are you able to find many items at the vintage stores for your steampunk clothing? When I saw the photos, I imagined you must. Cool store!
And a pirate store to boot! Blaze must have been in heaven...except maybe the spooky stories, lol.
My Family was there the previous weekend. Thank you for sharing the outing.
I LOVE that owl!!! And your little dude just gets cuter and cuter! :-)
