Busch Gardens in Tampa is a lot better than anything in Orlando with a

The animals there don't look as "caged" as they are at Disney.

I like Tampa and St. Pete. Wife's grandmother lived there for decades,
and when we visited, I loved picking fresh citrus fruit off her trees. I
liked the beaches, too.

I had family in St Pete for most of my life, I spent every summer
there from about the 4th grade until I graduated High school and I
owned a condo in Treasure Island for a quarter century.
I did watch Tampa Bay change from a sleepy little retirement community
to a megopolis. now Pinellas county is one of the most densely
populated counties in the US and the most densely populated county in
Florida.

I remember Pinellas county being nothing once you left St. Pete. You
could go just about anywhere on the coast and find nice marshes to go
blue crabbing and get an ice chest full in no time. Tarpon Springs was a
treasure at the time!
