Splashing about at H2O Rampage Inflatable Aqua Park

A few years back, we went to an inflatable aqua park. Since then, we’ve gone to smaller versions on holiday, but it’s something all three of our children have mentioned regularly. This summer, Kai has asked to do “more high energy things” so we started looking at inflatable aqua parks again. Everyone loves spending sunny days in the water and we hadn’t visited H2O Rampage Inflatable Aqua Park before, so we decided to book it up! You get an hour long slot, which is just enough to utterly exhaust any adults and teens alike, despite them all saying that an hour isn’t long!

Date Night at the Confetti Flower Field at Hatter’s Farm

Dann and I have been to Hatter’s Farm several times, particularly at Halloween, with our three children. It’s always decked up and very well presented, but now they offer a summertime Confetti Flower Field, filled with vibrant blooms that you can walk around and explore. As we both really enjoyed taking pictures of flowers and hanging out in flower fields, and have explored all of our local lavender fields, we booked up their Adult’s Only night to see this field at sunset.

How to Overcome Travel Anxiety: 5 Tips from a Psychiatrist

Travel anxiety is a common problem that psychiatrists and other mental health professionals encounter in their practice and it’s usually easy to overcome once you identify the problem and seek help. 

Unfortunately, most people are dismissive of travel anxiety and don’t make a serious effort to help or accommodate loved ones and acquaintances dealing with this problem. This isn’t out of malice; it’s simply a cultural bias that makes us more responsive to ‘serious’ sounding conditions. 

For example, if you tell someone that you have clinical depression or Generalized Anxiety Disorder they are more likely to step up and help, as compared to when you tell them that you have travel anxiety. 

Nevertheless, travel anxiety can be debilitating to many, making it harder to pursue or thrive in careers that require frequent travel, and also to unwind and enjoy the benefits of vacations.

Trying St Michel Choco Burger & Choco Waffle Snacks

[Ad- gifted product] We are always up for trying new snacks, especially during the school holiday as a sort of trial run to see what would go well in our kid’s packed lunches when school starts back up again! When we got a few boxes of St Michel Choco Burger and Waffle packs, Robin and Kai were really pumped to try them out. Both of them have had friends at school who have tried these treats, so they were ready to have a go at them themselves. Both of these treats are quite similar, being made of a soft cake-like shape and chocolate, but in different shapes. Sometimes, however, shapes are all that matters to children!
