Long walk but good sites to see. Played while hubby ran his first part of Gasparilla today. Good day for walking around although at 7 am when I started it was quite cold. Cool spot for #3 zone. Received my completion code but neve know where that goes. lol

This was a great tour of downtown Tampa; very well laid out. We did not enjoy the additional walk at the end to final and back to car as it seemed kind of pointless and having nothing to do with touring downtown. The rest was awesome and we really enjoyed seeing every benchmark. Thanks for a great tour!

WOW...now that's what we call HOT!!! Guess 90 + degrees isn't the best time of day to be out in the hot Florida sun. Wouldn't have been as bad back in MI. Don't know what it is about Florida...but it sure is hot and humid down here! Barely made it back to the car without passing out. Nice walk though...saw a lot of interesting landmarks, took a few pictures and except for the limited shade, had a great time!! Riverfront Zone was the only one that gave us any trouble when it repeatedly kept crashing. It took a while to zero in on the benchmark and a little extra ingenuity just trying to get to it, as the area is currently fenced off with warning signs to keep out...thought for sure he was going to fall in!! After the long drive out we weren't about to give up before we even had a chance to get started. Nice job on the wherigo!!!
