I gotta say, I do not remember Cactus.<br /><br />Ellen: Yes, we have!<br /><br />Linda Sue: The light is definitely brighter here. It's almost TOO bright, especially for my fair London complexion. :)<br /><br />Bug: We've had a great time. :)<br /><br />Lynne: So what band did you see at that concert? I saw the Nutcracker at Curtis Hixon in the third grade. But the hall has been gone for decades, torn down and replaced by this park and the convention center near Harbor Island. The spelling of the Floridan has always been a debate, and some people DO call it the "Floridian," but in my book that really brands a person an out-of-towner. :)<br /><br />Reya: Isn't it weird?

Shouldn't they have called it the Floridian? Maybe not.<br /><br />Great pics, and what a beautiful russian-esque building the Tampa Bay Hotel is!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875008154587045790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-39487347555476282542013-07-12T15:17:05.053+01:002013-07-12T15:17:05.053+01:00Happy birthday to your mom!

WOW. I love how the light/colour is so yummy - like Venice, sort of, most certainly brighter than London or the PNW. Glad you are re connecting - Always nice when that works out. I hope Olga is not going out of her mind with yearning.

I wish the Floridan much success. <br />The first rock concert I ever went to was at Curtis Hixon Hall. Cactus- some early seventies super group. I wonder what happened to them.
