We can't face the morning without a good #instaBURG to push us toward the sunrise. While the pictures of the scenery, the sunsets, markets, concerts, festivals and other instances of paradise are inspiring, it's the characters the #instaburg tag features that define it. We'd be lying if we said we didn't fanboy out a little bit whenever we see Stonewall the Frenchie at Northshore Park.

These are a few of the faces indelibly  laced into the fabric of the city.

This Frenchie is kind of a big deal in the Burg. Stonewall makes his rounds to the best spots to eat, drink and relax. You can consider this feed a lifestyle guide to St. Pete.

This little cat is the prescribed dose of adorable you need every day of the week.

This pup isn't even a year old but has already found its way into our hearts. Because he's so new to the Burg, each time you see him explore a new spot in the city, it's like you're experiencing it for the first time too.

@stpetestormtrooper

This little lego figure brings the touch of Star Wars we could all use most days. This weekend he invaded Folkfest St. Pete and has taken trips into the mugs and steins of others. It's hard out there for a clone, unless you're in the Burg.

If you're looking for the latest in infant fashion, or some costume concepts for your next party, Delilah and Amber are the go-to daughter mother combo.

@kimberlyworstell

Kim's feed has us convinced that she is the animal whisperer. Ducks, pigs, bulls, dogs, sloths and sea-turtles, her photos are a menagerie of the cute and the obscure.
