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.

A Day Out at the Line Friends / BT21 x Artbox Cafe & Boutique

The Artbox Cafe & Boutique has changed their theme again, for the first time since lockdown, so we all really just had to go back! This cafe, if you don’t know, changes the theme of the characters, the menu, and all of the merch inside the boutique every few months, providing a new experience. These themes all based around Japanese characters and shows, showcasing cute and colorful creatures that bring a fantastic feeling to the place. Previously, we’ve seen the Pusheen theme, the Gudetama theme, and the spooky Gudetama theme, however, BT21 and Line Friends were new characters for me! Let’s get into what was on the menu. As always, we went with Claire who also write up the cafe on her blog, and this time she brought along her partner David!
