Jordan…thank you SO much for showing us all this is Tarpon Springs. I have family in Clearwater and Port Richey. I can’t do the walking and can’t tolerate the heat so I appreciate you doing all the walking for us. I DEF would LOVE to go to Replay. That’s heaven for us folks who grew up in the 70’s. LOVED the game rooms. Especially pinball and football🫠😍🎉

Jordan if I walked into that arcade with my husband and all those pinball machines I would never get him to leave! Our first date was going to play pinball! He's my true 'pinball wizard'. True story- my dad bought my older brothers a pinball machine for our rec room - Ballys Kings and Queens. Pinball and arcade games- so many memories!!!!!☺️🥰❤️😊🪸☀️🌴🦩

When I first moved to Sarasota FL 16 years ago, I took a day trip up to Tarpon Springs with my folks. We indulged at Hellas (OMG the food, the wine, the desserts!), bought sponges, and I perused Get A Guru for lovely soaps. It was a fun little town. Glad you got to visit!

I remember when I was in elementary school going over to Tarpon Springs/Naples/Tampa a week for vacation and going on one of the boats where they dive for the sponges. It was a lot of fun. There was a nighttime show over there called Waltzing Waters that's been gone for the past 20+ years.

I'm so glad you're enjoying the wonderfully beautiful and diverse state of Florida! We are going to St. Pete soon (Dali Museum) and now I think I'll take a side trip north to Tarpon Springs! Sponging is huge in many parts of the state but I'm still fascinated. Thank you Jordan for another fun trip- save me some baklava! 🪸☀️🌴🦩☺️🥰😊❤️

Jordan I just love Florida and miss it so much, the first time I went was in 1971 and have been in love since, as I’ve told you before my parents retired to Punta Gorda and really enjoyed my time there and of corse Gainsville. My parents took us to so many of the places that you are visiting Ty I really needed this, Hi Jah😎🐾Oh wow the arcade was fabulous, reminded so much of Hampton Beach in NH💙The artwork is wonderful, the glass dishes I believe were called depression glass very popular in New England, again ty for a great day🐈‍⬛🐾🐈

Edit: I haven't been to all the places you went into, but that Antique store looks incredible, I have to check that out next time I'm there.

Jordan I went on the Dolphin Racer excursion in November 2021 in St Petersburg. It is a very big yellow Speedboat. What was a 2 hour trip and goes out into Tampa Bay and Gulf of Mexico. I got tickets on Groupon that were pretty cheap. Tampa Jay told me he thought Hulk Hogan used to own it at one time. It was a very fun trip with lots of Dolphins seen jumping in the waves. Great video today!

I was going to mention tarpon Springs on the New Port Richey piece but figured you knew about it. It’s hard to watch but Beneath the 12 mile reef was filmed here or nearby. It’s about 2 families fighting over the sponges. One of my favorite old school actors Gilbert Roland is in it and a young Robert Wagner. Every January the Greek church does a ceremony where an ArchBishop throws a cross into the bayou and young men in small boats jump into the water to retrieve it. The one to retrieve it is blessed for the year. It’s a big deal and draws many visitors to watch. Not sure of the status but in the area is a primate sanctuary that my grandfather brought me to in late 1960’s. Some of the family fought to keep it open after the grandmother passed. I don’t think it’s one of those fake sanctuaries like big cat Carol killer Baskin’s place in Tampa. Yup had to say that. Lol
