Two Fish Tunnels at the Aquarium of the Bay

Going to aquariums is one of those things both Dann and I really enjoy! There is just something about exploring the creatures that live underwater and seeing what they look like close up. The Aquarium of the Bay is located on Pier 39, right at the end, and is one we have passed by a few times in previous years. This year, however, Dann booked up tickets excited to walk through the area. The aquarium is across several floors, creating a real experience of walking around.

Playing in Wowland Soft Play

Though Kai and Amelia are far too old for soft play, Robin is still just in the age where she is interested and wants to play. So, on one of the days when just she was off school, Robin and I went to Wowland Soft Play to see what it was all about! This location just opened that month, so we didn’t know much about it or what to expect. Robin very much loves going to new places, so was excited to take a look. We booked online, which was pretty simple, giving us an hour slot. There is a pop-up, which is worth noting, that you cannot escape from and need to read, each time you go to the website. This was slightly annoying, but I do understand why they do it as it contains information needed about your booking.

Harlow Rocks Rock Drop in Harlow Town Park

I have been apart of the Harlow Rocks group for over a year now! Often, when running our Pokemon Go group, we will do rock decorating days to give to the Harlow Rocks group. It’s basically a group of people who paint a bunch of rocks and then hide them in the town and beyond. These rocks are meant to be found and bring joy to whoever sees them. During the summer and Easter each year, Harlow Rocks does a Rock Drop event, where we all band together to try to hide a huge number of rocks! There are a bunch of other activities there as well. This is our third Harlow Rocks event that we’ve attended, this time on the Easter Monday as it happened to fall, which was very fun.

Cartoon Art Museum – Lots of Comics

Dann and I headed over to the Cartoon Art Museum, which is primarily focused on comics and the birth of comic books. It almost feels more like a small collection than a full museum, but they’ve got a mix of classic comics, comic notes, and featured artists who are local and new. Along with this collection, there are a few little fun facts and bits of history, so you could learn a lot there.

Spring Cupcake Course with Sweet Designs by Jennie

I know it’s past Easter, but I couldn’t help booking up another Spring cupcake course with Sweet Designs by Jennie. Our Spring wreath class from last month was ten cupcakes, so this time doing six felt very quick. These designs were mostly different from the wreaths we’ve previously done, which is one thing I very much enjoy about these courses. Even if they have a similar theme, they do feel completely unique and different. Amelia and I are very into these cupcake classes, as it’s the perfect mother-daughter activity to bond. The classes themselves contain up to six people, so it feels super intimate and good. As we have been to so many of them, we knew quite a few of the regulars and it’s so much fun catching up.
