IN ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA, you can visit Ponce de León’s Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park for an admission fee of $18.00. There, you can drink a sample of the miraculous water. You might even feel a bit younger… but only if you believe and are suggestible…or perhaps are just thirsty. This fountain may be of historical interest, but it is not of any therapeutic value.
