Busch Gardens

I'm still trying to play catch-up from our trip to Florida, so here are a few gems from our trip to Busch Gardens in Tampa. Tony had to work that day so it was just us, Wendy and the kids and Donny, Lena and Cora. It was warm and crowded, but we had a great time trading off on kids and rides so we all had a chance to ride a roller coaster or two as well as watch the kids ride the kid rides.










We started out with a ride around the park looking at all the safari animals. We loved that there were no fences and that the animals could roam all over the place. Josh just really liked being on the train.

When we got off the train, we found some animal handlers who were letting the kids pet an iguana and the hugest bunny I have ever seen in my life. Cora was fascinated by the bunny...












I didn't get too many pictures from that day, simply because we were rarely all together and the camera stayed in the stroller so as not to fall out when we went on the roller coasters...But Sam was insistent that we get one (or 500) pictures of all the tiger stuff.
It was a wonderful day...filled with fun and family. We were so exhausted by the end of the day...but in a good way.
