The new kid.

Hi from another newcomer.

Already posted a few on the car hire section regarding availability of the elusive Ford Expedition.

Been going to Florida since 1999, rented for the first 3 years down Poinciana Blv on St James Park. Since then we now rent yearly of a friend who has a Villa on Indian Ridge.

The first few years we did everything and usually went home exhausted. Now we tend to go to 1 or 2 parks and then just generally relax by the pool or shop / sight see.

Just returned this morning from our 9th trip (coping better with jet lag due to 4hrs time difference at the moment) and managed to do stuff we'd neved done before such as visit Daytona and took a scenic boat trip on Lake Toho.

A way to make the jetlag a little easier is to try and take the latest flight back to the UK if flying direct. By flying at say 2030 or so, your body will be expecting to sleep at some time soon anyway. When you land in the UK, you should be more refreshed than the earlier flights.
