Lego Festival at Legoland Windsor

Posted on May 23, 2025May 19, 2025 by Jupiter

We have gone to a number of time-limited events at Legoland Windsor; their Brick or Treat event, Firework Spectacular, Christmas event, and even their newly opened mini-golf. So, when Dann heard about the Lego Festival happening, as a sort of spring fest, he figured it would be a good time to visit! We have a bunch of favorite rides we enjoy going on, and found that having these new activities to sprinkle throughout the day rounded things out. Once we entered, we went up to the large main stage and grabbed our lanyards, which had a bunch of little pages on them, to tell you about various Lego-related experiences like Fortnight and even their golf course.

Exploring the Pier 39 Tulipmania

Posted on May 22, 2025May 17, 2025 by Jupiter

When we visit San Francisco, we always take the time to walk along Pier 39. Last year, when we went, there was a tropical storm happening so the pier itself wasn’t full of lovely weather and the Tulipmania festival had taken a bit of a hit, not being so ideal for us to walk around. This year, however, we have had such better luck! Pier 39 is already an iconic, free, fun day out, but with Tulipmania going on, there is just more to explore and take pictures of!

Two Fish Tunnels at the Aquarium of the Bay

Posted on May 16, 2025May 15, 2025 by Jupiter

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

Posted on May 13, 2025May 21, 2025 by Jupiter

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

Posted on May 8, 2025May 21, 2025 by Jupiter

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.
