Saint Augustine Travel Guide

With its 17th-century fort, old city gates, horse-drawn carriages clip-clopping along narrow streets, historic buildings, and reconstructed 18th-century Spanish Quarter, St. Augustine seems more like a picturesque European village than a modern Floridian city. This is, after all, the oldest permanent European settlement in the United States (no, it wasn't Jamestown in 1607 or the Pilgrims' settlement at Plymouth Rock in 1620). A group of French Huguenots settled in 1562 near the mouth of the St. Johns River, in present-day Jacksonville. Three years later, a Spanish force under Pedro Menéndez de Avilés arrived on the scene, wiped out the Huguenot men (de Avilés spared their women and children), and established a settlement he named St. Augustín.

We are trying to plan a fundraiser Christmas dinner to raise money to feed the homeless and our theme is an old fashinoned Christmas dinner and decorations. I was trying to find a sight in St. Augustine that would give me some information about what they would have eaten for Christmas dinner and how they would have decorated. Any information would be appreciated.
