Calling Florida (or traveling) CP Members
Trip Advisor says St. Pete has some of the best beaches in America. From KC, there are a ton of nonstop flights to Tampa Bay for under 300 dollars round trip.
http://www.tripadvisor.com/TravelersChoice-Beaches If we were to head there for 4-5 days, are there good restaurants, and would you have any suggestions on places to stay. Since the airfare is cheap, I can splurge a little on things like accommodations and dining. Keep in mind that the sole purpose of this vacation is to lay around and pretty much do nothing for 4 days. (I know I can do that at home, but the wife insists on a nice beach). What say you? |

I will be down in Key West and Marathon next month, but after the daily heads up threads from George I may pack the Glock.

Additionally, (this was mentioned to me by a pal) if you see any pythons whilst running about, take pics. A few guys I know are trying to determine how many pythons have made there way that far south.

I will be looking for three things down there, beer, sun and large fish on the end of my line.

Additiionally, this time of year, you have a pretty good chance to see manatees (Dec-Feb). Hope you do. They're pretty ****ing cool IMO. In other news, if you kill the python you can get a reward. I can't recall whether it is solely permited to the Glades or not.

It might just sound like pure bitching but it was like 10 degrees when I went out to my car today.
Missouri has a nearly 60 dg day just a few weeks ago and is now cold as hell. I loath this state from Oct-Feb.

At $300 a night it should be pampering. Much better alternatives.

What time of the year you coming down? How long do you have? You can get round trip flights on Alligiant Air into St. Petersburg from around $250. I've been posting pics and descriptions of my trips to the area beaches for the folks back home on Facebook.
