When we first got to Tampa, I was so nervous. We had no friends and no family....but it turned out to be very peaceful. We were so fortunate in Atlanta to be surrounded by all of our family and friends that we were busy ALL OF THE TIME...we NEVER had down time. I know I could have said no but just didn't feel right or want to. However, when we got here, we had no obligations, no showers or parties...we had free time together as a family to do what we wanted. We tried to do something different every weekend. We went to the Lowry Park Zoo, Sea World, the MOSI, Busch Gardens and the Glazier Museum. There is quite a bit to do here and with Orlando only an hour a way we have even more options. We have not done LegoLand yet but it is on our list. It was just so nice to go explore on a Saturday and on Sunday we really just relaxed...something we have not done a lot of in quite some time...makes you appreciate your family that much more!
Here is our first visit to the Lowry Park Zoo. It is an older zoo but has some great animals and an amazing kids play area with 5 or 6 rides for little kids...all paid for with admissions to the park. We even got both boys to ride a mini roller coaster which Dylan wanted to do and Landon had no interest in, but he rode anyway...well because I told him if he did ride it he could get his toys out of time out...Ha!
