Family Dinner at Gonzos Tea Room

Posted on July 8, 2024January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

At the end of May, we celebrated our 5 year anniversary of being a family. Five years feels impossibly long, and we spent a lot of time this year reflecting on our lives. One of the things Dann and I wanted to do was re-visit our first family outing. You see, the first time we went out as a family unit, we went to the Norwich Gaming Festival and then had dinner at Gonzos Tea Room! At the time, Robin was so little that she didn’t really eat (nor does she remember much of it), where as Kai and Amelia had a very limited pallet. Going back with them being so much older was such a fantastic time and the food did not disappoint!

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.

A Day Out at BeWILDerwoods

Posted on November 3, 2023January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

While out at Waxham Sands, we really wanted to spend a day doing a big, outdoor family event. A while back, Robin had brought home a flyer from school about BeWILDerwoods. This place wasn’t near to us, so now that we were in the area, we decided to book up a day of adventure for all of our family. BeWILDerwoods is a massive, outdoor, forest-adventure place where you can explore around a bunch of different play parks and areas that have large slides, big rope walks, and mazes. Along with this, there is an over-arcing story that is told through puppet shows and book-statues around the park, making everything link together.

A Weekend Away at Waxham Sands

Posted on September 27, 2023January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

We love adventures, we love weekends away, and we love the beach! I am so surprised I have never been to Waxham Sands before – though we have had a holiday in Great Yarmouth nearby, we had not gone to this specific area. Dann’s mother owns an RV and rented a plot at Waxham Sands for the weekend and invited us to come up to have a little family adventure! We went up Saturday afternoon and then came back Sunday evening. There were a few places we visited nearby, but this post will primarily be about Waxham Sands.

We went on holiday to Great Yarmouth over the summer and had a fantastic time! There is so much to do, so many beaches to enjoy, and lots of really delicious places to eat. After all of our exploring, seeing local sites, and hanging out – I have picked the top three places that we all had a really fun time at in Great Yarmouth, as a family! These places are fun for all ages and are stand outs from our trip that we all still talk about! If you are ever looking for more places to visit in Great Yarmouth, check out their Facebook page.
