You'll be fine, and if you're that worried about it, contact a dealer in Florida and do it before you come back.
What 5K first oil change? If the dealer told you that, they lied to you. It's simple... change the oil when the car tells you to. No reason to stress about it. Read your manual about oil changes. Don't listen to the dealer.The round trip plus "run around" mileage while there will approximate 4K miles and so before I get back my mileage will certainly go well passed the 5K 'first oil change' mark.
The mechanic that is telling you to come in early is scamming you. There is no need to change the oil so soon. My Crosstour had 10% left at about 9500 miles when I changed the oil. I could have let it go longer, but because of my schedule, it was better to go ahead and get it done at 10%.I called the dealership and asked whether I should change the oil before leaving or wait till my return (when the odometer will be approaching 7K)...the answer was that "since this is the first oil change you should change it before leaving"..fair enough.

Go on your trip. Enjoy it. Stop worrying about the oil. The car will tell you when it's time.
