Aweek in TPA with my cousins, I had to come home on Dec. 29 on Jan 29. At TPA at around 5:15 for my 7:00 flight, we parked at the top so we could see the planes. But now at the parking garage they check your trunk! Inside TPA, I saw that my flight was delayed by 10 minutes. I checked in. For dinner, we went to Taco Bell and I ate a Nacho Bell Grande- beans instead of beef. Next we went to this aviation shop. There for 6.00 dollars w/ tax, I bought a AA 55 piece lego set to make your own plane, which I started to make when I got home, while watching Heat vs. Bulls. Heat won. TPA is like a spider. There is this big master check-in and baggage claim area, and to get to your concourse you go on a train. I went on the train after the dinner and shop. I flew on 737-300 Shamu, new colors, new seats. I went to the cockpit. The flight was uneventful. At 7:45, I reached FLL. At the next-to gate, I saw a USA3000 plane to PIT, along with some other WN not to mention a taxing to runway WN 737. Then I went home. T1 is amazing. Planes hanging from the ceilings, fish tanks, geat atmosphere. Everyone should see it! By the way, I flew WN!

By the way, I flew WN!

I think we could have picked that up on our own :wink:

Flew on the whale, eh? Nice.
