Hi people
weve just flown back (23 May)from the best family holiday EVER in Orlando
We were a party of 8 (My family and my buddy with his wife and kids) We stayed at the days Inn Lakeside, the accomadation was clean and comfortable
My buddy and I booked Dodge Neons online before we flew. My buddy signed for and picked up his car.
When I went to get mine I had to laugh when the clerk apologised for "not" having a Neon available, and asked if "I minded having a bigger car at no extra charge"
That bigger car was a Dodge Intrepid 2.7 ltr 24v fully loaded ..to say my buddy was pi$$ed is an understatement
It was our first visit but certainly not our last to the US. Temperatures in the hi 80's/low 90's, gas averaging $1.45 (we pay on average £3.60 or roughly $5.60 here in the UK)
We did the Disneyland, Kennedy Space centre, Busch Gardens, Cocoa Beach...man 2 weeks wasnt long enough. You Americans are so friendly to visitors, food is fantastic and so cheap.
Dont even get me started about your factory outlets, my wardrobe looks like a small branch of the Nike store
I noticed most of your Foci were sedans, I hardly saw any zx3/5 and the wagons were even rarer
Dont get me wrong I dont believe for a second that the US doesnt have problems like anywhere else in the world, what Im saying is we had a fantastic time in your country.
The rainy old place called London which is our home...somehow aint the same
Roll on 2005 when we plan to holiday in the US again...hopefully flydrive for a month

ps I dont mean to offend, but why do some people do this to their Foci? I understand they are called bra's...what exactly is their purpose?
