Florida

Like most of my generation, I grew up with Disney.  The first film I saw in the cinema was Snow White.  I loved the specials at Christmas, but never had a chance to go to Walt Disney World.

When we were looking for something different for our 40ths, we somehow came up with the idea of Florida.  Like New York, it was meant to be a one off.  Second trip happened 3 years later, with another in 2018!

We planned a further visit in 2020, but when the world when to shit, that ended up postponed until 2022. While we do want to go back at some point, I’m not sure when that will be. There’s also a lot of stuff outside of New York and Florida that we’d like to do, road trips along the west coast, or the whiskey and music trails in the south. We’ll see!

Our trips to Florida do always extend out side the Disney bubble. We stay offsite, but honestly when you see some of the Disney vloggers and how long it takes them to get from hotel to park staying onsite, I don’t think we’re any slower from where we normally stay!

We’ve done Kennedy Space Centre twice and loved it, gone down the east coast to Miami and over to the west coast towards Tampa. One of our favourite places is Lake Apopka, about 40 minutes drive north – alligator pictures included!
