Museum of Senses – Unique, Playful Museum

Posted on July 8, 2025July 23, 2025 by Jupiter

I am a fan of strange or more interactive museums and lately we’ve been hitting them all. When deciding what to do for our day, Dann picked out the Museum of Senses, which was a really fantastic choice. This is a great place for fun-loving adults or kids alike. We went in early afternoon, on a Monday, so had the whole place to ourselves, which was a nice bonus. My feet were pretty tired from walking everywhere, so the idea that we were going to take them off and wear the socks felt very fun! The ticket price does not include their special socks, which are an extra 3 Euros, just as a warning.

Smoke and Fire Festival Ascot – Great Food and Music

Posted on July 7, 2025July 6, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Last year, we went to the Smoke and Fire Festival in Maldon, which was such a fun vibe! This year, they invited us to the Smoke and fire Festival Ascot, which has very similar vibes, but different showcases and focuses. Dann and I primarily go to food festivals to eat as much different food as we possibly can, which was our goal at the Smoke and Fire Festival Ascot as well.

Afternoon Painting at The Potty Painting Studio

Posted on July 2, 2025July 14, 2025 by Jupiter

Whenever Amelia has a day off of school without her siblings, she asks to go pottery painting! We’ve been very slowly replacing all of the plates, bowls and cups in our home with ones that we have decorated ourselves. Often, we will get these sorts of items instead of grabbing the more decorated bits, though Amelia does have three little cats, a mushroom decoration and so much more from pottery painting. Recently, when she was off school, we went to The Potty Painting Studio, which was surprisingly nearby.

Exploring the Bay of Abandoned Hotels in Kupari, Croatia

Posted on June 26, 2025June 27, 2025 by Jupiter

When going to Croatia, one of the things that people kept mentioning was “exploring the abandoned hotels”, so obviously we wanted to have a look for ourselves. There are three really large hotels on the bay, which have all been abandoned after being shot up during the war in 1991. They have been left to rot and rust, some of which have serious fire damage, and many of which have graffiti.

Enchanted Garden at Harlow Museum

Posted on June 25, 2025July 8, 2025 by Jupiter

The Harlow Museum and Walled Gardens has been hosting more and more events, especially as we head into the summer season! One of their most interesting event to us was the Enchanted Garden, as it looked like something Robin would very much enjoy. We have previously been to the Harlow Museum, though many years ago, but are trying to do more local activities as more events seem to be popping up. The Enchanted Garden event seemed to be aimed at younger children, so Kai was a little out of place, where as Amelia likes to participate and Robin was well interested and into things. I can see this also being great for children younger than Robin too.
