Blasting Each Other at Scorpion Airsoft Gelblaster

Posted on March 25, 2024January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] When it comes to activities that Kai is particularly excited for, there is only really a few. Laser Tag is his current go-to, so when we learned about the Gelblaster option at Scorpion Airsoft, we were pretty excited to take Kai to a thing that is sorta like Laser Tag, but also sorta more hardcore in a way! Gelblaster is a way of playing Airsoft, however the “pellets” within the gun are actually soft, gel beads that don’t actually hurt.

24 Hours in New York City

Posted on March 16, 2024March 15, 2024 by Jupiter

Though I live in the United Kingdom now, I use to live in Upstate New York. Back in the time when I was less chronically online, I went down to New York City and spent about 24 hours there, taking a greyhound bus. At the time, I wasn’t aware of things like the New York City Tourist Pass, but can see how useful that would be if I went back now! If you are ever thinking about going to New York City, here are all of the things that I enjoyed doing when I was last there!

Alton Towers Pirate Takeover and Splash Landings Hotel

Posted on March 13, 2024February 26, 2025 by Jupiter

It is one of our yearly traditions to go to Alton Towers during the February half term. They have on this Pirate Takeover event, which has a limited area of the park open. There is a deal that allows you to book up a day at Splash Landings Hotel, the night over at the hotel, and then go to the park the next day (or the reverse of that, really it’s up to you). We love amusement parks and hotels, so this is such a fun time for everyone.

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Buns, Soup and Pork

Posted on March 8, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

After discovering the Harlow Chinese School‘s cooking courses earlier this year, we were anxiously awaiting the next course to attend. As they are aiming to do this each and every month, we were prepared for March. The cooking course this time had a big variety of food; stuffed buns, flower buns, corn and chicken soup, and char siu pork. Unlike the last time we attended, some of the food that was being made was demonstrated only this time, but we really did get our fill of knowledge and food.

A Day Out at Borough Market

Posted on March 1, 2024August 19, 2024 by Jupiter

Dann and I love going to food markets, and one of our favorites is Borough Market! Though we do not get there often enough, when we go, we always have a fantastic time. Borough Market has a bunch of street food stands, as well as stands that sell a number of artisanal products. We’ve previously gone there to purchase cheese, smoked meats, and chutneys for fantastic charcuterie boards! It’s also just a fun location to explore, though on the day we went, it was very busy. Our goal was to get a few dishes to eat for a late lunch / early dinner.
