Helloooo Tampa! Busch Gardens here we come!


Remember how we had a quiet Christmas? Well that's because Boyers spent it at their new Florida home. The Barandes Trio and Hot Aunt Lisa joined them for a lovely New Year's vacation. Bye bye, Boston!


Sadie and Jacob waiting for our flight to board. Sadie was great on the flights, except for the whole potty thing. She took one look at that airplane bathroom and started screaming bloody murder. Diapers it was!


Probably illegal shot of our plan landing (use of electronic devices and all).


Traveling is tiring!


What would a trip to Tampa be without visiting all of our Sesame friends at Busch Gardens?


Cranking out souvenir pennies.


Riding the swings (twice!).


Hanging out with some fine, feathered friends.


Reading the map.


Waiting for the gondola.


Just resting her eyes as we soared over the park back to the entrance (lines for the coasters were far too long for me or aunt Lisa to take a ride, sadly).


We ended our day eating out at Columbia, a Cuban restaurant in the heart of old Tampa (near the cigar factories) over a hundred years old. Despite initial reservations by some members of the party, everyone agreed it was a truly delicious meal (oh the tapas!!!). Definitely worth a revisit on future trips.

What could we do to top these days? Stay tuned to find out!
