For fall break I went to South Ponte Vedra Beach in Florida. It is not that far from St. Augustine, FL. I had been there many times but I had never been able to take a ghost tour because my younger sister had always been scared. This time my sister's friends stayed with us one night because they were staying at Daytona which is only a hour aways. So since her friends were going to be there my sister felt like she could muster up the courage and go on a ghost tour. So my mom, my sister and her two friends, and I all took a ghost tour that night. However it wasn't really like a ghost tour it was more like a ghost hunt. When we arrived at our starting point we were greeted by our tour guide. Luckily for us there were two more men who were ghost enthusiasts that were taking the tour that night. When we were about to embark on our adventure we were each handed a EMF transmitter. This was supposed to detect the energy of a "ghost". Every time the lights would flash up and then quickly go back down a ghost was supposed to be really close. Our mode of transportation for the tour would be in a hearse. Luckily my sister and her friends had to sit in the back where they would put a coffin because they were the shortest. The first stop on our tour was the lighthouse which was supposed to be extremely haunted. Apparantly there had been a lot of activity there lately. When we first started looking for ghost I was a little freaked out because it was kind of eerie. I was just waiting for my emf detector to start flashing. They even had us swing on a swing set because they though that we might attract the children ghost. After we got used to everything it actually turned out to be quite fun. We learned a lot of interesting things and had fun but I don't believe that I am going to be buying myself an EMF detector anytime soon so that i can ghost hunt. Starbucks is amazing :)
