Flat Stanley-Whitman went with us today to Adventure Island, one of 10 theme parks owned by The Blackstone Group (formerly the parks were owned by Anheuser-Busch). The family of parks includes all of the Seaworld locations, Busch Gardens and Discovery Cove in Orlando, among others.
Adventure Island is a water park – there are rides, a giant wave pool and a lazy river that keep you entertained all day. Adventure Island is in Tampa – it was about 87 degrees today, pretty typical for Tampa in the summertime. The afternoon thunderstorms started at about 3:30, again, very normal for Tampa.
There are tons of beaches, sports teams (including the Tampa Bay Buccaneers football, Tampa Bay Lightning hockey, and the Tampa Bay Rays baseball teams) and a great zoo, Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) and an aquarium to visit.
Unfortunately, there are no mountains in Florida or snow so in the winter, so there isn’t much else to do.
