Yesterday we watched a train cantilever bridge open and close to let boats pass through. This we saw on our four hour walk! The Riverwalk , along the river, of course, led us to Jacksonville Landing, a gathering place downtown frequented by tourists and locals alike. The many little shops and restaurants on the water provide great opportunities for people watching. A further few blocks up Laura Street we spent a couple of hours at Chamblin's Bookstore and Cafe.
The walk back home was brisk as the temperature dropped abruptly. It was a chilly night. I am currently at the Public Library where, of course, internet access is freely available. Today we will visit the Karpeles Manuscript Museum Library which houses the world's largest private collection of original manuscripts and documents.
