Not to take anything away from Orlando....but Tampa has Busch Gardens. Plenty of animals, shows, rides, games, and tropical landscaping. For an extra price, you can do some backstage safaris. If you do the ones where you feed the animals, make sure you get the early trips in the morning hours. If you wait til mid-day, you will find the animals have had enough food and they don't always come to your trucks to eat from your hand.

I am a Tampa resident, we have beautiful beaches & also MOSI (Museum of Science & Technology).

Busch Gardens & Adventure Islands also falls under the Sea World umbrella so if you have full 4 park pass -- it can be used here as well :-)

Lots of great shopping & restaurants too! I love the Tampa Bay area!

Yes, my son's bday is 10/15 and we will be at Legoland!

Hello Gillian -- my house! But there is a very good South Indian vegetarian place on Dale Mabry called Udipi Cafe:

Udipi Cafe

Also on Fowler Ave near University Mall area -- has turned into a Little India of sorts, so lots of new restaurants in that area as well.

In New Tampa on Cross Creek is Saffron Indian cuisine. I guess it depends on the location, Tampa is very spread out. In fact this Saturday (9/17) is the International Curry Festival:
