FLORIDA - JACKSONVILLE - August 01, 2003

I've been to Jacksonville plenty of times. I have actually had three close friends live here; a sailor, an artist and a pharmacist. On almost every trip I have taken to Florida, Jacksonville is inevitably the first port of call. It's always the first place I get to stop at and stick my feet in the ocean. And I always make sure that I do. Specifically at the location featured in the images at left. The Jacksonville Beach lifeguard tower has been a familiar landmark to me for years.

For people, such as myself, who like to drive highway A1A down the coast, this is the place where we start.
