My wife and I have both qualified for the 2009 World Champs in Clearwater and we’re going through the headache of trying to work out where to stay and how best to get there. We’re ideally looking for a villa or something similar as our 2 year old daughter and 2 other relatives are also travelling with us. Being a local could you make any suggestions or advise as to accommodation for race week and travel? We’re in London by the way
