A Day Out at Rebus: A Game Called Malice at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

[Ad- gifted experience] Featuring John Rebus, a retired detective from Ian Rankin’s detective novels, Rebus: A Game Called Malice brings him to the stage, showcasing something beyond the previously written books and bringing a story to a different medium. This performance is sort of a murder mystery, but at the same time, the characters are also trying to solve a murder mystery at the end of an evening dinner.

A Day Out at Wicked the Musical

Robin has previously never really picked places to go and adventures to go on. She likes to describe us as an Adventure Family, and always asks where we are going next, but lately she has been giving suggestions as to what she wants to do and go too. The other day she asked to go see Wicked the Musical, which she had seen advertised when we went to the movies to watch Matilda, and then saw ads for on her phone games and a poster around town. Dann and I were really excited at her suggestion, as she normally doesn’t pick such a new thing to try. So, we booked up Wicked the Musical for that weekend.

A Day Out at Edible Ornamentals @ Cherwood Nursery

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I are both big fans of food and do enjoy a good amount of spice. We often try spicy food, use hot sauces, and enjoy chili oils! With that in mind, neither of us had much knowledge on spicy chilis, peppers, and the lot. So we both were really excited to attend Edible Ornamentals‘ chili tasting for two, where we were able to tour Cherwood Nursery, taste a bunch of peppers, and learn a lot!

A Day Out at Glow Wild Wakehurst

It’s been a few years since Dann and I went along to Glow Wild Wakehurst, a yearly illumination event! We are both big fans of illumination trails and aim to take our children to one each year, and this year we selected Glow Wild Wakehurst, as they had not been to this specific one previously. Glow Wild Wakehurst has a different theme each year, with completely different illuminations and even a different path through the gardens so that it does all feel fresh and new.

A Day out at Legoland at Christmas

If you have been reading our blog, you will know we are a fan of Legoland. This year was actually the year of amusement parks, where we went to as many amusement parks as we could in the year. As Legoland is our most local amusement park, we wanted to go to the Halloween event, Bonfire Night event and Christmas event, to experience the park in a bunch of different ways. We were able to check out Legoland at Christmas and had a pretty fun time!
