A few weeks ago we went to review the big cats feeding experience at Paradise Wildlife Park. It was awesome and much better than I could of ever imagined. After the experience we were able to take the boys around the park. This was their first visit to the park and although some sections were […]
Hate Flying? Go Long Haul
For someone that is always planning her next break, you would probably believe that I was a happy traveler. The problem is I am not. I get sea sick on boats and I am afraid of flying. So if I am afraid of flying, why on earth am I telling you to go mid or […]
What’s New At Legoland Windsor?
Today is the second day that Legoland Windsor has been open to the public and we decided to pop along to renew our Melin passes and get out of the house. I have to say I was pretty impressed, as for the first time ever, they had loads of staff on and we didn’t even […]
