We booked an island tour (semi private – which means that potentially up to 10 other people could book to come with us 4) to cover most of the major sights of the island. We paid and gave our information over. And were told they would meet us at the hotel at midday. As it … Continue reading Review: A semi private bus tour of Santorini
We met up with the 3 bridesmaids on the one day for a boat trip, it departed from the old port in Fira, so we met up in Fira and took the many steps down to the port. It was an experience. Not one I would like to repeat ever… but an experience none the … Continue reading Review: Hot Springs and Volcano
We had looked into loads of different options, but realistically needed a 2-bedroom accommodation, with the facility to wash clothes. We came across Lefteris Houses, the price seemed too good to be true. It was distinctly lacking in a pool, but it had everything else, was in a quiet location and was really cheap.

Check in was fairly easy, and comprehensive, and our room was ready and … Continue reading Review: Sheraton Skyline Heathrow

We like it because there is good access to the beach from the car park on the promenade, town centre. Which was reasonably priced (I think the most we paid was about £5 for 6 hours). Within … Continue reading Reviews from our Cornish Break 2017
Treasure Trails We have done a couple of these, this is a bit of fun for the family… it’s a bit like geocaching, but with a twist. Each trail has a theme for example, a spy mission or a murder mystery. With a background story on the inner page, and the clues spread out with … Continue reading Treasure Trails
Techniquest Cardiff Bay, Cardiff. http://www.techniquest.org Before our children arrived, I have been to Techniquest several times as a child/young teen myself and with other children (friends and family). And I have to say, it’s consistent in capturing the audience. Child, and adult alike, are captivated by its play-based approach to science. Yet, for all of … Continue reading Techniquest
