Most years for Christmas our family & I do a trip to Tampa, Florida, the five of us all pack on up in our dad’s truck & drive several hours to our endpoint, however my family & I all enjoy Tampa Fl, however not only is the weather the best in the world, but there is so much to do, but every one of us only go for an overnight sadly.
We don’t have the chance to see the surrounding towns love Clearwater or St, then petersburg.
We like to stay right in the Tampa Bay area because all of us see the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team every year, and since our neighborhood in Florida does not have a professional hockey team, all of us are large time lightning fans. It is an amazing treat going every year to see a professional game, and all of us used to live in the north; Our northern team was horrible, but all of us still have a good time seeing the games. Getting tickets was next to impossible & honestly extravagant, however for the Tampa Lightning games, it is a very average price for the ticket & all of us can go anytime. I love seeing the professional hockey players. I have our number ones of course. I love Yanni Gourde as well as Steven Stamkos. It is fantastic that I can get a good seat right up the glass & can see them, and you just can’t get that experience in other places. The fans in Florida are way different than the north as well. They are way more polite. There is no yelling about the other team or leaving trash in the arena. Amalie Arena is a fantastic arena too. It is big, but not overwhelmingly so.
