My work schedule came out and they randomly scheduled me off on a Friday and believe me, we took full advantage of it. As soon as Teresa and I realized this miracle, Teresa put her shift up for grabs and before we knew it, we were headed to the Tampa area again for a day packed full of fun.
We started out at Busch Gardens(BG). Rollercoasters = Ah-mazing. While we hit all the major coasters and visited a few animals, our last stop was the best. Our pre-lunch was a huge banana split. First of all, because Teresa had never had a banana split before so we had to fix that and second of all, because there was a special to get five scoops of ice cream instead of three and extra toppings for just a dollar more. Let me tell you, this treat was delicious.
After our time at BG, we headed out for the beach. We decided to sample some gulf coast of Florida and headed for Treasure Island. But, first we found lunch at a local buffet place. It was sketchy at first, but once we got inside and got plates, we decided it was decent food.
We took a seven mile bridge out to Treasure Island. Humorously, there was a sign “Long Bridge Ahead, Check Gas.” Teresa and I wondered how many people ran out of gas on the bridge that they had to put that sign up.
Treasure Island was beautiful and I much prefer it over Cocoa Beach. AND! I did not get sunburnt! Yippee!
After the beach, we drove back to the Orlando area and grabbed dinner at The Rainforest Café in Downtown Disney. Then, we watched a movie, Date Night.
It was a full day. Plus, once we got home, we still had to wash out the tie dye we did the day before. 7AM – 2AM is a long day. But, well worth it.

Yay BFF Days!!
