Thumbs up 5 do Florida for the 1st time - October 2018**Complete**


So after 18 months of planning and saving we are back from our first family holiday as a 5. After returning a few days ago I am picking myself up from the post holiday blues and making a start on documenting our trip. This may take me some time. My notes are few and far between, my photos are middling to poor at the best of times but I cannot miss the opportunity to make a permanent record of our trip.

Our plans were adapted as we went along. The kids were great with a few melt downs thrown in to keep things interesting.

I will not re-introduce the cast as I did this in my pre trip report which you can find below. I have spent more time on The Dibb than most over the last year and have read countless trip reports. My effort will follow below.
