After our amazing dinner last night we had a relatively
slow and late start to the day. Our first job was to drive the short distance
into the city to pay a parking fine we had incurred earlier in the week. Yes we
had our first “citation” in the USA for overstaying our parking meter by
30minutes. We thought we should pay our fine ($25) as soon as possible as we
may have been hunted down or at least not been allowed back into the country if
the fine wasn’t paid. Anyway the lovely lady that took our money had a laugh
about it all and told us to “be good” for the rest of our holiday! As we were
in the city area we went for a short walk along part of the Tampa Riverwalk. We
returned to our accommodation and then later in the afternoon Rob and I went
over to St Petersburg to the Tropicana Baseball Stadium to see the Tampa Rays
play the Boston Redsox. It was a very entertaining game and the Rays won 10 to
3. We made many new friends who were all wondering what these Australians were
doing at the baseball. Everyone was so friendly, helpful and always willing to
chat to us.
