It is funny but I have lived in Florida for about five years and I have always wanted to go to St.
Petersburg.
It isn’t that far, maybe a three hour drive. It just seemed really hard to get there in my head. One day I mentioned to my husband that I always wanted to visit there. I wanted to sit on the beach in a swanky hotel. I wanted to shop, go to the spa, and maybe walk around the city of St. Petersburg. My husband was astonished at how cheap and doable my dream location was. For my birthday we went to St. Petersburg. My husband gambled, played a round of gold, and got a massage. I got a facial, laid on the beach, and hit the fitness center. It was a great trip for the two of us. The best part was the weather in St. Petes. We went during the early spring season. It was almost too cold to go in the water. We got a smoking deal at the hotel though. Since we weren’t in peak season nothing was sold out or bumped up in cost. The two of us agree that if we travel anywhere in Florida we need to go in Spring or fall. Honestly the summer season is the one people travel during but it is too hot for us. I don’t want to hit the beach in 90 degree weather. I would rather take a dip in 70 degrees if I had to pick. I don’t want to risk a burn at all.
