Sunshine skyway bridge! Jan 23

Getting ready to drive across the Sunshine Skyway into St Petersburg.   Wind is whipping n waves are crashing and I'm going to have a broadside wind! Can't wait! View will be great but its gonna be another white knuckle trip!

Hey! I survived!  It was an awesome view!  What a fun way to spend my birthday!  Seriously, the wind wasn't really hitting me broadside as I went over the peak of the bridge, so I could concentrate on the construction that shifted my lane onto the shoulder!  There I was, 6 inches from the edge of the bridge - it did give me a great view!  I could see for miles and I got to see Tropicana Field where the Tampa Rays place baseball.  Once I was off of the bridge, I was plunged into downtown St. Petersburg with 3 lanes of traffic and a turning lane on my right - oh and don't forget a red light at the end of almost every block.  Needless to say, I was very happy to see the campground!
