Looking chilly at the moment - looking at forecasts[:O]
Anyone there right now??? If so, what do you suggest doing?
Know where I'd rather be - no matter what the weather is like[:(]

We're here at the moment - been here since Tuesday evening, just having a day chilling as we have been busy shopping, checking what needs doing etc. We've had a day at the coast which turned out to be cooler than we had hoped and very cloudy so no sunset! The young had been the week before we arrived when it was fabulous. They went to the Orlando Museum of Modern Art yesterday while I did the annual taxes!! Tomorrow we are off to Websters Flea Market, the weather is warming up for Christmas day so we are having a bbq and then off to the cinema which is our tradition when in Florida, and as we have all the family here - probably for the last time now Cat is married they want to do it as we have always done. We are treating them to supper at Chathams Place for their last night on Boxing Day. We are then here another couple of weeks, so will be finishing painting the deck etc. But we are hoping to have another day at the coast, and we intend to do go the Morse Museum and then have lunch in Winter Park. May go and see 3 Dog Night who are performing in Lakeland on the 28th, just debating about booking the tickets! Will also check out what is on at Bob Carrs etc as often some good shows on - we saw the Jersey Boys here which was brilliant. Chris will be playing some golf and I might then get a chance to do some shopping, as so far have only seen supermarkets and spent a few hours in Millennia to get pressies for the younger generation. Everywhere is now heaving and not pleasant shopping let alone parking!

It's a bit better today but it has been very cold. Blizzard Beach has been closed for 2 days due to the low temperatures. We were at the parks yesterday and the day before with jeans and coats on and there were lots of people with hats/gloves on as well. It did warm up around lunch time yesterday and the sun was out so it's not unpleasant it's just not warm. We fly home today so we've been round the villa all day but the wind has dropped today so it does feel less cold. Still had a fab time though - the weather can't stop us.

Been here since Thursday. It was really warm when we arrived, but last two days very chilly. Better today, with forecast looking good for the next few days, and we were able to brave the pool. There was frost on the roofs early this morning.

Wen went to Kennedy to the gift shoop and cocoa beach for a few hours on the way home and it was quite warm there. plenty of people in the sea but but we hadnt taken stuff with us. came home and went in the pool at around 7.30 as the temp was only just beginning to drop. Mind you next week we'll be in Boston so guess it will be awhole lot colder there anyway so will make the most of it.

It was pretty cold this morning. It warmed up later this afternoon but it is quite cold this evening. It is better for the next few days. We are off to Ccape Canaveral Friday morning with the grandchildren. We have been here since early November and overall the weather has been really good.
