St.Petersburg, FL

Miami International airport
After spending 2 wonderful weeks in Guadeloupe we are off back to Miami only to spend the night on Miami’s International Airport‘s floor, with a lady giving us the current local time every 15 minutes, and giving us the instruction (in English and in Spanish ) on what to do if there was and unattended bag left somewhere! And if that didn’t keep me from sleeping the excitement of being back in St. Pete and see all my friends again sure didn’t help either! But as we were waiting for our flight to Tampa something pretty funny happened! Ben went to get something to eat and I was just sitting doing things on the computer, when from the corner of my eye I see someone wanting to sit, so I just move my back without looking and continue doing what I was doing and seconds later Ben sits in front of me and says « hey Kelly isn’t that the guy from you magazine?? » so I look over and yes, yes it is the guy from my magazine but I couldn’t remember his name until seconds later some lady calls out Mr. Hogan ! (most of you from France probably don’t have a clue who he is, but I use to actually watch his drama show where they filmed him and his family at home, but before he made that show he is a professional wrestler) anyways we took a few picture with him, just because you don’t see someone famous everyday! And then he was on the same flight as us! So that was our excitement of the morning! haha

Après la Guadeloupe nous voila de retour en Floride. Après avoir dormis sur le sol de l’aéroport de Miami nous prenons le vol pour Tampa, la on croise une star du catch qui prend le même avion que nous, c’étais très comique, je dit à Kelly : C’est pas le mec que j’ai vu dans ton magazine tout à l’heure? On vérifie et oui!! Donc autographe sur le magazine en question et photos, en 2 seconde on était devenu des fans lol.

Here we are with Hulk Hogan!

St. Petersburg

Being in St. Pete was really nice. I got to see some old friends, all my old houses that I’ve missed, my old neighbors who no matter how many times I come and go over the years are always as welcoming and its always as nice to see them and catch up every time! And boy have the kids grown up! But its great to see them doing so good! I had a great time catching up with my friends Ashley and Ryan (and their 2 adorable kids Rylee and Matthew ) who I hadn’t seen in years! Its always good to have old friend that you can just act like nothing has changed even though its been 3 years since the last time we’ve seen each other !
We went to Busch Gardens and got to show Ben what real rollercoaster are like! And went to Adventure Island for some fun water slides which is right across the street from Busch Gardens !
I also go to show Ben all the places I use to go growing up, like my old school, my old houses (except for the one that has been torn down haha … that was quit a surprise there!) all my favorite streets, neighborhoods, stores, and the Pier and Bay Walk were I spend all my Friday and Saturday nights! I showed him every little things that you miss when you move away and that are just so common to people who live there everyday and don’t even pay attention to it!




St. Petersburg

Nous voila arrivé dans la bay de Tampa, ou l’on est reçu par des amis de Kelly car elle a vécu quelque années là-bas.
On a vraiment passer de bon moments ici. On a fait du mini golf, vous aller me dire qu’on peut aussi le faire en France mais ici on peut aussi donner a manger à des bébés alligators!!! ce pendant pas besoin d’aller au mini golf pour voir des alligators, ici il suffit juste de se promener au bord d’ un point d’eau douce. Il est biensûr interdit de se baigner.
Dans la mer ce qui est bien c’est que l’on peut voir des dauphins, ce qui est mois bien c’est que la ou il y a des dauphins il y a aussi des requins!!! Et quand on se baigne il faut faire des petits pas dans le sable pour pas se faire piquer par des je sais pas quoi, à par sa c’est super safe lol
A par la plage et le mini golf on a fait un grand parc d’attraction (vraiment grand), vue une parade à l‘américaine et une course de formule 1 dans les rue de st.pete , et on a visité plein de beaux quartiers avec de grosses et belles maisons.
Il fait vraiment bon vivre ici entre le climat les maisons aux bord des canaux avec piscine et pelouses, les plages les routes bordé de palmiers, les dauphins et même des alligators lol
Peut être un endroit ou j’aimerais vivre.
