Beautiful day!  We headed over to Honeymoon Island State Park. They have a dog beach. Others at the campground said it is not bad. Was not too crowded around dog area. Unfortunately, Thumper is not a water dog. She spent most of the time laying in the sand and digging holes. Water was on the cold side. The following day Skip and I went to Busch Gardens. Definitely overpriced. First you pay $20.00 just to park. The fee was $105.00 per person for he day. Not happy. I was ready to leave, but the manager came over and told us about the City Pass for $99.00 each but lets you into 5 attractions in the Tampa area. We got the pass.
  Not impressed with this attraction. We took the Serengetti Train

which lets you stop off at different areas of the park. A rhino was right next to us as we rode through.  In the wild beast area, we saw tigers (beautiful), hyenas, lions and cheetah among other animals.

There is a large plate glass between you and the lions. It was like you were next to them. At least I got a good walk today.
  Using our City Pass, the following day we went to the Florida Aquarium

in the Channelside area of Tampa. This is where cruise ships dock. This was a great little aquarium. Saw seahorses, sharks, alligators, boa constrictor and other animals indigenous to Florida. We enjoyed this museum.

Afterwards we took a walk around the area. More pics are on facebook.
