We do!

We recently got back from Florida and loved it.

Following in the footsteps of my recent video of the day compilation, here is what we got up to:

It has to be said dude that you really do make some awesome videos!! This one must have taken even longer to put together than the last one. It's plain to see from this excellent collection of clips that you and your family are blissfully happy. I love the way you capture so many different activities and emotions. It's a truly great memory, for you and your family, of what looked like an amazing holiday.

I've watched the first 10 mins (to the end of Breakout by the Foo Fighters) and will DEFINITELY be coming back to watch the rest when I get a spare 15 mins in the next couple of days. You choose some really great music tracks to go along with the clips too!

Thank you for taking the time to put these great videos together and for sharing them too.

In answer to your original question, I love like theme parks. I've been to some of America's finest (Six Flags Magic Mountain and Six Flags Great Adventure) and ridden some of the best coasters in the world. The coasters in UK parks can't hold a candle to the US ones.

Awesome video, fella.

I've only been to Florida once, and that was way back in 1994. Absolutely loved the place, Floridians are so friendly and the theme parks are just out of this world.

I think a trip with my family should be in order.

@cmonkey: So glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your kind words. You really do get what I was trying to convey in the video. It's really difficult choosing music for videos like this, so it's good to hear you thought them a good choice. I pretty much scoured the majority of my mp3 collection and most songs are just too slow to capture the mood and keep up with the speed of transitions. Foo Fighters seem to consistently have tunes that match what I was after. I assume you are a Foo Fighters fan too :) You'll be pleased to note "Monkey Wrench" comes up later in the video lol.

So you like riding coasters too. This trip cured my son of Roller coaster fear and after much coaxing, bribing and dragging him on, he rode everything and once on them he really enjoyed them. His main fear was going upside down, thinking he would drop out. We soon cleared up that misunderstanding lol.

You've also been to Six Flags I see. My all time favourite coaster was there, The Riddler's Revenge, what a ride! The Hulk at Island Of Adventures has moved into second all time favourite. One day I want to get a trip going to ride Millennium Force at Cedar Point.

@Fuzzy: It's one of the greatest places on earth isn't it. Get planning for a family trip, it is expensive, but worth every penny.

Great video.

I've only ever been to one theme park and it was last year I was in Disney Land Tokyo and it was just amazing!

I'll try and find some pics, I'd go back in a heartbeat.WTGBoab2015-03-02 09:49:56

Don't be so quick to slag off the UK though. Thorpe Park and Alton Towers hold up alright these days! You got The Smiler, Swarm and Stealth. . . sure, it aint Top Thrill Dragster but they are world class attractions.

Busch Gardens is great and there are a handful of decent rides in Orlando too.
