As a Canadian, growing up I admired my friends whose families took a trip to Florida every Winter. These days our own family has fallen in love with Florida's gorgeous beaches, friendly people and attractions. We travel to Florida often (possibly more than twice a year) and one of my least favourite aspects has been the travel. We have travelled both by air and by car and we've established that the 20 odd hour drive just isn't for us. Between the kids niggling, my back aching and my husband ...
