Get into the Holiday Spirits in London this December

Posted on December 10, 2021November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- Collab] There are tons of things to do in London, especially around the holiday month! We love getting into the Christmas spirit by visiting London and checking out all of the different places within London to explore. If, unlike me, you live a bit far out from London, you should consider traveling into the area with the VIP pass, which will give you massive deals on places to stay, which can really make a difference in your experience. The VIP Pass gives you 7d/6n FREE hotel stay as a sign up bonus when you purchase the premium membership pass. But, let’s get into some of the fun things that you can do in London in December.

Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland is an annual festival that happens right in Hyde Park in London. It’s a massive Christmas-themed market, fair grounds, and festive area. You can meet Santa there, eat a bunch of different foods, ride some rides, and pick out some Christmas gifts for your loved ones. We always go to Winter Wonderland in the month of December. Ensure that you do pre-book, though, so that you can make it in. There are different priced tickets, and if you go midweek in the morning, it’s actually completely free to enter Winter Wonderland, which can be a big help to your budget.

A Day Out at Lumagica – Light festival with impressive illuminations

Posted on December 6, 2021December 7, 2021 by Jupiter

Dann and I have been pretty into light festivals over the last few years. We have gone to Lightopia, Chihuly: Reflections and Ashford Illuminates – which have all had a different feel to them. When in Norway, we figured we’d check out Lumagica, which seems to be a worldwide light festival, but is not one either of us had heard of or attended before. Lumagica was a unique experience, but most closely seemed to be a mix of Chihuly and Lightopia, in the way it was set up and ran.

A Day Out at Dino Kingdom Nottinghamshire

Posted on October 28, 2021January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] From the creators of Lightopia, an event that Dann and I look forward to every single year, Dino Kingdom is an interactive dinosaur experience with a dinosaur walk, that we were all very interested in going too. Lightopia is more aimed at adults, with a lot to see and not quite a lot to do, however, Dino Kingdom is a smaller scale event, with a of interactive rooms and points for children to enjoy. We decided to go up to Nottinghamshire for the Dino Kingdom event, which was in a massive park. The car park for Dino Kingdom is a bit far away, so you will find yourself walking down a trail full of jokes and dinosaur facts, which was a nice way to lead us where we were going.

2021 Goals

Posted on December 31, 2020December 31, 2020 by Jupiter

2020 is nearly over, and as I have done a goals list last year, I felt like maybe I should do one this year! Looking back to January, I had no idea that there was going to be a global pandemic, and that really threw most of my life in a bit of a twist – much like I am sure it did for everyone. Regardless of that, the majority of my goals were actually achieved. I was able to get a new car, we are well on the way to moving to our new house, I did record more video games for Youtube and I was able to do some virtual volunteering and donating of my time. The only thing I don’t feel I achieved was getting a new tattoo – but I didn’t really feel comfortable getting a tattoo during a global pandemic!

A Day Out at Glow Wild Wakehurst 2020

Posted on December 30, 2020January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

Each year, we make an effort to go to at least one lantern or light themed event. They pop up around the wintertime, showcasing the best versions of lights! This year, things were a little different, but we did end up finding a light event in our tier, with plenty of precautions, that we could go to! That event, as you probably have guessed, is Glow Wild at Wakehurst.

Upon entering Wakehurst, we followed the signs to the start of the walk. There were plenty of staff dotting around reminding people to wear masks, socially distance, and keep moving throughout the walk. Even though Glow Wild is an outdoor event, it’s one that does require masks, which is always nice. At the main start of the walk, there are a few little treat stalls – selling muffins, coffees, and hot chocolates. We didn’t purchase anything here, but joined the line to start the walk! After picking out a lantern to carry with us, we started along the trail.
