We flew from Gatwick airport, as London is quite a long way from where we live we stayed at the amazing Gatwick airport Premier Inn within Gatwick manor which was absolutely lovely, after a lovely breakfast we headed off to the airport ready for the 9 hour British airways flight to Tampa Bay!
We stayed in the gorgeous Marriott Clear water beach hotel which had the most amazing view of clear water beach! We could literally see dolphins from our room, it was gorgeous!
Clearwater is around 40 minutes away from Tampa and around 1.5 hours away from Orlando but there is plenty to do around Clearwater however I would suggest renting a car!
Here is the low down on what we got up to on our trip!
Day 1 - Landed in Clearwater - quick bite to eat and straight to bed SHATTERED!!
Day 2 - Trip to the Aqua adventure water park in Tampa, we got the meal deal which meant we could get food and drinks each hour without having to worry about bringing money in with us! The water park was huge, lots to do for all ages! My kids loved the wave pool!
Day 3 - Day on clear water beach! So much fun collecting shells and splashing in the sea!!
Day 4 - Trip to Busch Gardens - we got a fast pass ticket which was well worth the money! Lots of rides to go on, plenty of shows and restaurants! The kids loved it! This is the second time we have visited Busch Gardens and there is always something new!
Day 5 - Visit to Tampa Zoo, unfortunately it rained ALL day, most of the attractions are outside so it was a bit of a disappointment , however the zoo itself is huge, it features lots of animals, restaurants and rides.
Day 6 and 7 - Disney!! We met up with my niece at Disney and had the most amazing fast track tour, went on most of the rides! Love Disney its our 2nd visit and always have the most amazing time!
Always sad to go home! still got major holiday blues, once you have been to Florida nowhere compares!
