We often go to the Harlow Chinese School for their cooking classes, but the dates haven’t previously lined up so that we could take our whole family. This time, however, everyone was free and excited to be attending to make bao buns – which is actually a favorite in our household! This class was all about Bao Buns, but in normal fashion, there were also some surprises and side dishes that were made to go with it.
When trying to deice something to do over the weekend, we ended up finding that there were some escape rooms at Lakeside! Escape Hunt actually is within Boom Battle Bar, which was interesting and slightly hard to find, but we were excited to take on Alice in Puzzleland.

When Dann and I went with some friends to The Korean BBQ House Barbican, I was surprised at such a simple name and wasn’t sure what we were going to be eating. We were on a bit of a time crunch, and with 8 other people, so getting Korean BBQ didn’t make a lot of sense for us.

During the Easter Break, we wanted to get along to some new activities.

As we have some teenagers, we felt that a half day at Celtic Harmony Camp was best for us, though they do have timed activities going on throughout the day.

I feel like we always go to see some sort of animals during the Easter break. Last Easter we went to the London Zoo, so this time we went to the Whipsnade Zoo, which is also a conservation that has a lot of different animals, a train ride, a butterfly garden, an aquarium, and so much more. As we went during Easter, they had some Easter-related activities but are honestly hosting a bunch of different activities all year long, so there is always something to do.
