I’ve still not booked. The weather for Friday looks like sunny but 15 degrees tops.

Struggling to hit the book button at that temperature

I wouldn’t if your family haven’t ever done it as experiencing it the first time together would be more important to me. If they’ve already done it I’d risk booking on the day of the weather was good. You need a clear sky at this time of year in addition to a decent temperature.

We’ve been as a family 3 times.

So this is just something to do with some time I have.

Now as it looks unlikely I’m struggling to find something to do with my time. Any suggestions?

I'd wait to check the weather the day before...


Other suggestions- if weather cold how about some things wouldn't normally do like Hall of Presidents and Citrus Tower in Clermont... driven past both not done either.

Yes actually. Without kids I’d go to the Manello Museum of American Art.

I ended up going in the end. Reach 17 degrees. Toastie haha

It was weird. Firstly. It was really quiet. Which is a massive difference to summer time.

Also, the lifeguards were all wearing gloves, hats and thermals suits/jackets. Really bizarre

Then there was the grand reef. As we’ve always gone in the summer you have the few mins of adjusting to the really cold water. But due to the cold air temperature it felt really warm. Which was great.

The lazy river was roasting.

It was really cold when you came out of the water but apart from that it was brilliant

Glad I went along. Had a great day.

Sounds like they're native Floridians.
