One of my favorite things to do from time to time is to experience my city as a tourist...it helps you to see things in a new light and to appreciate the majesty and beauty of our surroundings! Alright, now dialing back the pretentious bs talk: there are always cool things to do in your city...enough so that an outsider would pay money to visit where you live and that goes for everyone!
In Jacksonville, we take for granted the fact that our downtown is right on a river and it's gorgeous. After a few drinks and dinner at Fionn Maccool's at The Landing, we took a leisurely stroll across the St. John's River on the Main Street Bridge to the Friendship Fountain which has recently been reopened after a $3.2 million renovation. It's really pretty at night because the bridges and fountain are lit up. Makes for a romantic ending to a wonderful evening :)
