Trying Different Foods at Shelter Hall

Food halls are a really fun way to try a bunch of different food or to eat a bunch of food with different people. When we are in Brighton for our yearly work trip, there is often an event at Shelter Hall, which has everyone meeting up, taking over the hall, and ordering some tasty food. Shelter Hall is a food hall full of different eateries, with tables in the middle. It’s a bit of a share the area experience as the tables are long and everyone sits together. Food is brought over to your table from the different venues, so you need to keep an ear out, but there is so much variety! Everything is ordered through an app and paid through the app, so you don’t need to get up or look at different menus.

Eating Pancakes at The Breakfast Club

Dann and I often go to Brighton for various activities, and while there, are trying to eat at a bunch of the wonderful food places they have around. The Breakfast Club reminds me of an American breakfast joint, feeling like the highlight of America and their diner-era. As an American, I do like the nostalgia that these types of diners have, and all of their food is always so filling and delicious.

A Day Out at Glow Wild Wakehurst

It’s been a few years since Dann and I went along to Glow Wild Wakehurst, a yearly illumination event! We are both big fans of illumination trails and aim to take our children to one each year, and this year we selected Glow Wild Wakehurst, as they had not been to this specific one previously. Glow Wild Wakehurst has a different theme each year, with completely different illuminations and even a different path through the gardens so that it does all feel fresh and new.

A Day Out at Sea Life Brighton

We really enjoy looking at animals and fish, so going to Sea Life Brighton, with the kids, was a goal of ours! We were planning on only going if it rained, but found we had enough time on our long day out to see the aquarium. It’s actually the world’s oldest continually operating aquarium, which is quite a big deal! The aquarium is almost under ground, so we went down some steps, and went into the place. The architecture was wonderful; high ceilings, all lit up, beautiful tanks of fish right at the entrance. They always have activities going on too! The older kids got booklets to help them take their time and spot fish, while Robin got a Peppa Pig themed activity booklet to solve!

Going up in the i360 Brighton

Dann and I have been to Brighton lots. It’s not too far from where we live, and it’s one of my favorite places. We’ve gone for my birthday, to see the Artbox Cafe each time the theme changes, for gaming events. There is just a lot of reasons for us to go! When it came to planning a day out for the children, now that they can take on little road trips, Dann suggested Brighton, so I got to work planning the day. One that we really wanted to do, was go into the i360 Brighton, ran by British Airways.
