Good morning & happy Monday, friends! Â I hope you had a great weekend. Â I am back from 2 weeks of traveling to share some scenes from Tampa. Â Last week, I shared more on our stay at Hotel Henry Urban Resort in Buffalo. Â Today ends my 8th year in public education. Â I’m looking forward to ending the marathon month of June with some exciting news that I’ll be sharing at the end of the month.
Upon arriving in Tampa, I headed to Oxford Exchange to kick off the weekend at one of the prettiest places I’ve ever lunched. Â I am obsessed with the gallery wall, the fiddle leaf figs, and the exposed painted brick walls of this place.
And later that night, I reunited with my college BFF after a few too many months.
I enjoyed these lunch views daily on the Tampa Riverwalk and ate way too many fried grouper sandwiches from Sail Pavilion.
The outdoor space at Ulele was one of my favorite views, especially after several days straight of rain.
I finally got to meet Amanda in real life for supper at On Swann in Hyde Park and it was such a great evening of girl talk, blog talk, and feeling like we had known each other for years.
One of my favorite parts to this visit to Tampa was checking out Ybor City and having dinner at Columbia Restaurant.
I rounded out my trip with one last night exploring Tampa with my BFF before heading back to NC.
Have you ever visited Tampa? Â What was your favorite part?
Don’t forget to link up with Biana and me and tell us all about your weekend!
Those views! My sister’s college roommate lives in Tampa too. The hospital she works at is on the water. I wouldn’t get any work down if I had a waterfront view.
Never been to Tampa! Soo fun you and Amanda had a blate! Are those Anchor Beads?! Looks like it, I love them!! Eliza is working for Amber all summer making necklaces and nannying for her new baby
