Massive, cheap cartons of OJ that acutally taste like oranges
Chock full o'nuts coffee
Publix Italian Chicago bread - at last!!!
Not being treated like a criminal for driving a car, SUV, or people carrier
Roads that go from A to B
Clean beaches

As you say Cruella, where do I stop??....

To the tune of my favourite things (Sound of Music)

Sunshine on roses and cocktails on decking
Warm days at theme parks and sunbathing sessions
Large bags of donuts tied up with string
These are a few of my Florida things

Mickey and Donald and Goofy and Pluto
Tower of Terror, ok I will if you do
Fireworks at Epcot and the joy that they bring
These are a few of my Florida things

Up in the morning and straight in the pool
Into the spa and a coffee or two
A day at the beach and a spot of fishing
These are a few of my Florida things

When the cold bites
When the rain stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my Florida things and then I don’t feel so bad.

I like the fact there is so much to do for all ages.

No two holidays in Florida are ever the same and you allways leave wishing you had time to do more , which is a fantastic reason to book again.

I like the fact that the villas are like a home from home but with so many extras.

How many people say at the end of a park day - "lets go home" - they really do feel homely not impersonal like a hotel , and everyone gets their own space.

I can't spare the time to write it all down but basically EVERY DAMN THING YOU CAN POSSIBLY THINK ABOUT.

I couldn't agree more Jo. After 16 trips to Florida we still find oursleves saying, "oh we didn't have time to go to......" and "never mind we will try to fit it in next time" There is always something new to try or an ever expanding list of favourites thet we try to fit in each trip.

Then there's the food, the weather, the people, the weather, the theme parks, the weather, the supermarkets, the weather, the shopping malls, the weather, the cheap petrol and did I mention the beautiful warm sunny weather? I just love the place [clap][clap][clap]

Thanks Nic, this is great. I'll have to learn the words so that I can sing it to myself while I am sitting in the traffic jam on the way to work on Monday, maybe it will stop me from getting the usual Monday morning blues.

Watching the faces of our 8 and 3 year old boys as they enjoy themselves in the parks, meeting the characters, going on the rides and having the time of their lives. Even though we go over a couple of times a year if they had their way it would be more. Having our own private pool which we use every day, the only problem is trying to get the boys out!! The variety of places to eat out and the price that lets you do so every day. The fact that most places are so child friendly and the way things are set up for families. The level of customer service which is generally very high. Being able to explore new experiences like air boat rides, helicopter flights, swimming with manatees etc. Getting a break from the UK weather at this time of year, going where it is warm, light and the holiday sets us up for next year. Being somewhere Christmas can be celebrated in style, unlike the UK where some places do not want the word Christmas mentioned or decorations put up. I even enjoy driving in Florida, the roads are generally good, the petrol is cheap and the parking spaces are wide enough to fit a car in and open the doors easily. The shopping and outlet malls are fantastic, large, clean, free parking and they have a incredible range of items with unbelievable prices. I could go on but the list is never ending, I'm just glad we only have 5 days to our next Florida fix.
