5 week - Indian Shores to Orlando / Bahamas / Disney Dream to New Hampshire to Boston...

We headed to Indian Shores, Florida for the first three weeks, renting the same wonderful condo from Julie & Gordon that we always do.
I could have spent all five weeks here but we decided to children would need to move on (i.e. they told us!).

After three weeks, visiting Tarpon Springs, Anna Maria, St Petes, Dunedin, Clearwater, watching the Tampa Bay Rowdies and generally being beach bums, we move to a villa in Orlando.

While here we took in a three night cruise on the Disney Dream.
It stopped in Nassau and it's own private island of Castaway Cay.
In addition the activities on the ship are more than anyone could do in three days.
Boy loved it and we didn't see him for a lot of it as he was in the club making friends and losing his voice!

For the last 6 nights we flew up to Boston and drove to New Hampshire for three nights, staying in Pine Valley Cabins, Thornton.

First note, loved flying JetBlue for the first time, highly recommended.
Secondly, the White Mountains are stunning, if you get a chance to visit then please do.
Thirdly, the cabins were lovely and the owners, Jayne and Andy, very very helpful and friendly.

Final three nights we drove back to Boston and visited the historical sights which sparked the independence of the USA.
