2011 St Augustine Nights of Lights Train is coming!

You can go see Christmas lights… or you can go see CHRISTMAS lights!!!  This year, make sure you do the latter & enjoy 2011 St. Augustine Nights of Lights via the Old Town Trolley.

Old Town Trolley’s Holly Jolly Holiday Trolley is a fun and easy way to take it all in.  Experienced drivers take you down the best lit streets, make four stops in case you want to explore on foot, and avoid all the tourists {who weren’t bright enough to ride the trolley} walking down the middle of the road.

Perks of Old Town Trolley’s Holly Jolly Holiday Trolley:
* Free Parking & shuttle to Visitors Information Center, where the Christmas Light Train departs.
* Free hot cider & cookies at the Potter’s Wax Museum stop.
* Free Pictures with Santa at the Old Drug Store stop (use your own camera or pay for professionals to do the work)
* Two additional stops- Monterey Inn & the corner of St. George and Hypolita in the heart of Historic St Augustine
*** And the BEST PERK: The super-cool Christmas Light Viewing Glasses!  They turn a normal palm tree (pix above) encircled by strands of lights to “Daddy!  LOOK!!!”

A few more details you’ll be glad I shared with you:

When- They begin Sunday, November 20, 2011 and run nightly 6-8 pm (get off & on as much as you’d like) through Jan 1, 2012.
Where- leave from the Visitors Information Center, 10 West Castillo Drive
Cost- $7 adults, $4 children 6-12 (pssst: locals, there is a $1 off coupon in MINT magazine!)  Don’t worry, my tourist friends, I’m looking out for you, too.  Order your tickets online here and put in code: SAHJ1 for a discount!

And that Free Parking with shuttle I told you about is at the Old Jail Main Depot – 167 San Marco Avenue or Welcome Center at 1700 N. Ponce de Leon Blvd (US1)

There is also a combination ticket available that will include Winter Wonderland… I hope to have more details on that coming to you soon.

The stores are already putting out their decorations, so I guess I’ll close this with from our familiy to yours… Merry Christmas!!
