Seeing animals at Tiergarten Schonbrunn

When we are on holiday, we always find ourselves at a zoo or an aquarium! This time, we visited Tiergarten Schonbrunn, which was right by the cafe where we had breakfast the same day. This zoo has over 500 different animals on show, each with their own large enclosures, which is always great to see! This zoo is an entire day out type of zoo, if you really want to explore everything, as it is truly massive. We did not have an entire day, so didn’t end up seeing everything, but am very excited to go back and see more at some point.

Flower and Lace Cupcake Class with Sweet Designs by Jennie

Every month, Amelia and I go to a cupcake class! We’ve been doing this for well over a year (nearly two, I think!) and have not had a duplicate class yet. Sweet Designs by Jennie creates lots of new designs each month, however, the Flower and Lace Cupcake Class was a classic that we had not gotten around to getting to yet. It’s got a lot of fondant decorating, including creating little fondant flowers. Like all of the classes, Sweet Designs by Jennie has new tools and new techniques.

The Guild at MTFest UK in The Other Palace

When Claire invited me to see The Guild, as apart of the MTFest UK, I wasn’t really sure what to expect.

The Guild is a musical, based on a series that is all about meeting up with virtual friends outside of the internet, to see how you all get on.

Loot at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

[Ad- gifted experience] The Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch is one we frequent. They’ve got a single stage, where they put on fantastic shows. There is a bar outside the stage, along with a cafe on the other side, and plenty of seating while you wait for the show to begin. This time, we went along to see Loot – a take on Joe Orton’s classic dark farce, though we hadn’t heard of it before.

Seeing the London Card Show Esher

[Ad- gifted experience] Amelia has been getting into collecting Pokemon Cards, so we’ve had our eye on more events around our area. We’ve gone to a few card shows in our town, but hadn’t been to one of the medium or large sized card shows, so when we were invited to the London Card Show at Esher Sandown Racecourse, we wanted to see what it was all about!
