This morning I did something I rarely do: booked a flight more or less on a whim Spontaneity, whetever next?
Usually I plan trips for weeks, or months, before I even book a flight. But we have two BA Amex vouchers to use (the other one I am using for Japan next year) and to be honest I need to use it so it does not go to "waste". Choices for long haul flights (the voucher has little value on short haul trips) were limited and most destinations did not take our fancy. Thailand and Cape Town in January had long sold out. And then I saw Tampa and thought, "why not"? A bit of winter sun and relaxation in the New Year, what a great idea. So now it is booked. And I have second thoughts.
We are visiting Miami and the Keys (with a quick trip to the Kennedy Space Center) next month. So we will have seen part of Florida already by then (we have never visited the State before). I hope we like it!!!
I know several V-Flyers regularly visit the West of Florida, so what is it about the area that makes it so great? Is it any different from the East Florida coast? Your enthusiastic replies about the area would be appreciated
