Florida travel

Crack of dawn start and potentially awkward schedule - but all went well. Even our transfer from Heathrow to Gatwick was smooth and quick. We had ample time to enjoy the lounge facilities at Gatwick before heading for our slightly dleayed Virgin flight.

We were in the upstairs section of the plane and the space, food and service were all excellent. They made up most of the time lost on departure and were just 15 mins off schedule in Orlando. There was a huge storm and the roads were awash. Lucy met us (eventually) and we headed back to our accommodation in Kissimmee - except we got lost and it took forever!

Cade was in good form but travelling through the night had thrown Braeden off balance, so we nipped out to TGI Friday's and just got a takeaway and some beer and wine. Off to bed about 10:30 pm Florida time - about 3:30 am in our body clocks!

Up at 6 am this morning - all quiet - Jo got up about an hour later but still no sign of the Lesinas. Weather forecast for the week is pretty bad - storms are normal at this time of year, but not usually until late afternoon. Today the rain is forecast to start about 11 am, so not sure if Disney is such a good idea?
