Last weekend was glorious.
A complete disregard for all homework and tons of adventures!
We first went to this "secret" beach about 5-10 minutes away that someone gave us a tip on. Its actually just a park with a bay beach... not a secret but it was very quiet and pretty and there was a family there setting up for the itsy bitsiest wedding you've ever seen. adorbs. No more than 12 chairs. We walked on that beach and found a bunch of beached jellies! (no stingers) so we had fun rescuing them by tossing them back into the waves until one of Stacy's imploded during its mid air journey and we realized we might have been doing more harm than good.
After that we went to a little park about 2 miles from our apartment that I found while I was running. It has a really long pier out on to the ocean and its located almost directly across the bay from Downtown Tampa so it's a very pretty view of the sky line.
While we were there we saw a big group of dolphins swimming about 30 yards away! There was a ton and they were all jumping and flashing their tails. At the end of that pier is a restaurant called "Taste of Boston"... coincidence?! I think not. Because the menu looked crazy good. Ill let you know how it is after I eat there. Now right across from that park we found a horse farm! and passed some time watching the pretty horsies and wondering why our parents never obliged when we asked for a pony for christmas every year.. (still waiting mom).
Sunday I took a long bike ride in the beautiful weather and then I ventured out to an island preserve I saw on google maps about 10 minutes from our place. (literally have no idea what i would do without google). The "island"(definitely only a peninsula) had a bunch of "hiking" (no change in elevation) trails. Hence the picture at the beginning of the post.. and heres some more:
this upcoming weekend is halloween as you all know so there will be more to post about those adventures later:)
