Yeah Bubblz, why don't you go visit Tampa? What a cool place - NOT!
Sorry scandia, it's just that bubblz and I are from Tampa. We're pretty much all Tampa'd out.
Seriously, if you want to do the whole beach thing, go to the Keys. If you want to go somewhere new, go to SoCal and have Rudey take you on a tour.
eta: Scandia, where do you live in Tampa?
