Homosassa Springs

The family had a pleasant (and exhausting) day at Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park!  Just 1.5ish hours north of Tampa, the State park serves as a refuge for injured and/or endangered native Florida wildlife.  It was nice to get away from the city/suburb life for a day and back into “The Real Florida”.

Added bonus – admission is free if you’re a member of the Tampa Aquarium.  Otherwise, Adults (age 13 and over) $9.00 per person.  Children (ages 3 through 12) $5.00 per person.  There is no charge for children ages 2 years and under.

Feel free to check out some of the sights we saw from our tour:
