We really enjoy looking at animals and fish, so going to Sea Life Brighton, with the kids, was a goal of ours! We were planning on only going if it rained, but found we had enough time on our long day out to see the aquarium. It’s actually the world’s oldest continually operating aquarium, which is quite a big deal! The aquarium is almost under ground, so we went down some steps, and went into the place. The architecture was wonderful; high ceilings, all lit up, beautiful tanks of fish right at the entrance. They always have activities going on too! The older kids got booklets to help them take their time and spot fish, while Robin got a Peppa Pig themed activity booklet to solve!

The Concrete Jungle Book at Pleasance Theatre
[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I were very excited to attend another play, especially as The Concrete Jungle Book was in a new theatre we have not attended before; Pleasance Theatre. Pleasance is very interesting; above a large bar. Inside, they have their own bar, and have tables instead of seats. You can order snacks and drinks right to your table, or grab them from the bar before going in. There is a main area in front of the stage, as well as an elevated area, with various sizes when it comes to the tables themselves. The space felt great!

Going up in the i360 Brighton
Dann and I have been to Brighton lots. It’s not too far from where we live, and it’s one of my favorite places. We’ve gone for my birthday, to see the Artbox Cafe each time the theme changes, for gaming events. There is just a lot of reasons for us to go! When it came to planning a day out for the children, now that they can take on little road trips, Dann suggested Brighton, so I got to work planning the day. One that we really wanted to do, was go into the i360 Brighton, ran by British Airways.
A Day Out at Santus Circus
Whenever the Circus comes to town, you better bet we are going to be there experiencing all it has to offer. In the past, we have gone to several circuses, each with their own focuses, acts, and performances! There are so many different traveling circuses, that we are hoping to someday see them all, especially as Robin is so interested in circuses, when she sees the tent she starts asking about it! Santus Circus was the newest to stop in our little town, being a French inspired circus we have never seen before!
A Day Out at the Disgusting Food Museum
Recently, Dann and I went to Malmo in Sweden for a few days. During that time, we checked out loads of different places, including the Disgusting Food Museum. This venue has very strange reviews; lots of people saying it was an amazing experience, but they would never go back again. After going, however, I really felt like I agreed with everything I had read!
