I would research the respective forums for each area (Miami, Orlando, Tampa, etc.) for answers to these questions. Use the search module for each forum, as questions like shopping and restaurants have certainly been dealt with before on those forums. The only good alternate airport to Tampa is Orlando, and it all depends on the particular flight whether you can save. Its also going to depend on your preferences on what ';must do%26#39;s'; are. Depending on your preferences, you could choose to stay in Orlando your whole visit and not do everything there is to do there. You also need to be wary of the fact that you%26#39;re visiting around Thanksgiving week, as Florida in general and Orlando in particular is going to be busy.
