Florida trip 2011

We all had a great time visited 8 different courses of which all were fabulous. everyone very welcoming, weather too was brilliant with only 2 days which were not so good.

Some flew in a bi-plane which was an awesome experience. Managed to visit New York on the way home

 Our first golf course was The Tides. very much the lowest course we played and went on to play better courses. 10 rounds all together.

Visited the Fantasy of Flight museam with lots of old aircraft, very nice.Lads in New York managed to get time to go up the Empire States and to Time Square absolutley brilliant according to Don who supplied these photos
