In our hopes to make the most of the spooky, Halloween vibe that’s in the air, we have been looking for new local festivals to attend, and came across Land of the Dead! Land of the Dead is a festival that has a few different aspects to it; a pumpkin patch, a circus, few rides, food stands and some decorated houses that feel like a little village to explore. We had never been before and didn’t really know what to expect, so were happy to explore!
Over the summer break, we have been looking to go to all sorts of fun activities. After going onto a small inflatable assault course in our local swimming pool, we really wanted to try a bigger one, that even Robin could go on (as she didn’t make the height requirement for the swimming pool course). Due to Robin’s age and very short height, she’s not actually tall enough for most of these courses, however Aqua Splash in Sawbridgeworth had different rules, as long as an adult went around with her.

[Ad- gifted experience] When it comes to vibrant, well spiced Thai food, Giggling Squid is a perfect place to eat. We entered the Giggling Squid and were in love with the décor. The entire place is so beautiful, with bench seating that has flowers hanging from them, looking so adorable. Pictures on the walls of hand-drawn squids, everything is so beautifully themed. And the smell of food wafting through the restaurant is absolutely mouth watering. Dann and I were really excited to dig into some delicious food – and totally ordered way too much! Giggling Squid has a limited time, Summer Menu which you can enjoy until September 4th. We got some dishes from that menu and some dishes from their regular menu as well.

The summer holidays is in full swing, so we have been looking to get our kids out and about to lots of fun activities, some of which actually involve moving around! Previously, Dann and I went to an adult hour at Clip n’ Climb Chelsea and had a lovely time. We had shown the pictures to Amelia, Kai and Robin who all were super interested. When out to Legoland, as the kids were climbing the rock wall by Lego Ninjago, we remember Clip n’ Climb and decided to book it up! Jump Street has a Clip n’ Climb section on their website, so we figured we’d take a look at theirs.

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I have been to many, many mini-golf places in our time. However, none of them really felt like the perfect place for a date. Puttshack Brunch Club, however, provides a lovely brunch with bottomless cocktails, along with a round of super high tech golf, which really does feel like the an amazing place to have a date with your loved one.
