One event in Florida that I always want to see is the St. Petersburg Grand Prix race. This year I planned ahead and rented a timeshare at the Treasure Island Beach Club for my family. It was perfect having a home away from home right on the beach. The Gulf was still a little cool, but the air temp was in the 70's. The kids swam anyway. Our condo had all the necessities and I liked it that we were not in a huge resort, but definitely located on a super un-crowded beach.
Made it to the races and also made it to Busch Gardens...about a 45 minute drive away. My kids favorite place to eat was Monster Pizza on St. Pete Beach. I had some delicious grouper at Philthy Phils'. My hubby also made it out for a day of fishing. John's Pass is near by and offers a zillion gift shops and charter boats. We had a great vacation for my kids spring break! Here are some pictures:
