Good morning from the ABC Action News team.

Spring break is upon us, meaning the beaches are more crowded than usual. Lucky for us, we still have plenty of ways to entertain ourselves while enjoying the beautiful sunny weather and cool temperatures this week. The Food and Wine Festival at Busch Gardens kicked off earlier this month and will be serving up its delicious menu until May 18. You could also head to Tampa to cheer on the Tampa Bay Sun when they take on the Spokane Zephyr this Wednesday. Let's also not forget our wide array of state parks and springs.
