Sunday was a nice relaxing day in Tampa. We needed one after the long drive from Atlanta the previous day. What was really great was that one of Michael's best friends, Chris, joined us on the final few days of our trip. He flew in from Phoenix Sunday afternoon. After we picked him up, we went and grabbed a bite to eat and later went mini golfing.
In Tampa, I guess you don't just go mini golfing. You do it in the presence of alligators!
Anyway, the boys threw down a challenge to me to see who is the superior mini golfer. Bad idea boys! Needless to say, I destroyed them. But the highlight of the evening came after we finished. The mini golf place let's you feed the gators. I can definitely say, that's a new one for me and the boys.

Basically, you can buy a baggie of cut-up hot dogs, put them on a plastic hook that's at one end of a stick and a long string and drop them down into this pit like you're fishing for gators. While you're doing this, the gators go into a feeding frenzy as they jump over each other trying to grab the bait. Wow! Let's just say you didn't want to fall in there. Needless to say, the boys loved it!

We finished up there and headed back to our hotel. We had a really LONG drive from Tampa to New Orleans on Monday morning.
