Its only the money that stopped us adding it on again this year.

Think maybe a little trip to Fort Lauderdale may be in the pipeline for May
Oo really lovely... we only went there for a couple of hrs en route bk to Miami and it was fab - great beach too! Is that where your DS lives?

No my sister lives in the UK but holidays in Florida for winter for about 6 months of the year. I won't see her sadly . Thinking of few days in FL then a cruise. Have to say I am not a beach person really but will be happy with a couple of days there.

Sounds good to me 6 months in FL!
Cruise sounds lovely... I’ve only ever done one a Disney one though it was superb! I thought I would be scared of just the amount of water and no land but I loved it... helped with Mickey Mouse on board
How long does it take for you to fly to FL?

Would love to do a Disney cruise but dont think it will happen. Think if we had young kids I would splash out but we can get two for the price of a disney cruise so will make do with that. For the right price I would definitely do one.

Direct the flight is about 3 hrs 20 mins. Good thing is we are just an hour ahead of Florida time wise, so we dont get the horrible jet lag.
We dont have any direct flights from here in winter though so have to get 2 flights. We would leave here at 11.00 am and get to FL at 5.30pm. in May. Summer flights start in June.
