Florida

I had a wonderful trip down to Florida to see my mom and Jim. The weather was perfect. Shorts, t-shirt and flip flops the whole time. Mom and I did some major after x-mas shopping one day. We got some great deals! We also made our first trip to Busch Gardens Tampa. We all agreed it was much nicer and bigger than we thought it would be. The lines for the roller coasters were too long, but we were able to enjoy the rest of the park, including the wild animals. I can't wait to visit Florida again. I will have to wait now until after summer. No one in their right might would travel down there in the summer months if they don't have too!

Fireworks are legal in Florida. We bought a pack at the local Walmart...very classy!

We shot some off every hour leading up to New Years, then the rest at midnight.

The skyway was pretty fun. It was cool to see all the animal from the air.

I think the elephants were my favorite. Their eyes make them look like old men.

Flamingos are such odd animals. We stood watching them for awhile.....so weird, but beautiful.
