I was guided to the Mission of Nombre de Dios by following the giant cross in the St. Augustine skyline. I was pleased to find a cemetery nestled underneath the second tallest cross in the world. It is well worth checking out. There are plenty of benches to sit and take all the atmoshpere in.

Mission and Museum is free. We did not visit the museum because we wanted to see the cross (the second tallest in they world - or so I read...
