Things go in and out of style, they go
from being old-fashioned to retro and back again. Florida is now in
the middle of a renaissance, tourism is at an all time high. Records
are broken every season. Young and old, rich or poor, everyone wants
to vacation here.
What's the
draw? Hot sun, turquoise water, iridescent sand and entertainment
day or night. Got a cold - science can't cure it - but Florida can.
Beaches, beaches and more beaches.
as far as the eye can see and then some. Great hotels right on the
beach. great mom & pop motels right on the beach, wonderful B&B's in
the center of the city. You would be hard pressed to find such a
variety of upscale, downscale, whatever way you want to go,
entertainment, accommodations and vittles.
The Tampa - Clearwater - Saint
Petersburg area is a unique blend of modern Florida (think Miami
cool), retro (50's era) and historic ( St. Augustine style). From
Trump Towers (in the making) to bungalows, from highways to
cobblestone streets, it's all here. You will find the ethnic
diversity of a big city and the hometown warmth of a little burg. Museums and
opera companies, comedy clubs and gentleman clubs,
world class shopping and tourist traps - fun for all ages. Fishing,
snorkeling, parasailing, boating, jet skis and walking, bicycling
and laying around.
