One of my favourite places in Norwich is The Assem One of my favourite places in Norwich is The Assembly House.

We used to go a few times a year, at least, for afternoon tea but sadly, it's not something we can afford as much anymore.

However, yesterday I was able to surprise my best friend with her very first Assembly House afternoon tea while it was Wizard of Oz themed.

Although it was hot we enjoyed lunch and did a spot of shopping in the city before giving up because of the heat!

AD | Thrills and excitement at Great Yarmouth Plea AD | Thrills and excitement at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach! 

For years Erin has been asking to go on rollercoasters and fast rides and this week she got her wish at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach!

Bookable in 3 hour slots, you get access to all of the rides and can go on them as many times as you like. As each session has a limited capacity we never waited more than 5 minutes for a ride with the exception of the big roller coaster and the log flume. 

Erin was able to try so many new things and even though she may not have loved everything (mainly the waltzers), she was so excited to give it all a go.

Having this much fun is hungry work and the Pleasure Beach has loads of options for food and drink... all quite reasonably priced too I thought. 

There was a few rides we didn't get to do, and some Erin wasn't quite tall enough for but that just means we have to go back next year.

AD | Family fun out of the sun! It's getting a bi AD | Family fun out of the sun!

It's getting a bit too hot this week so while on a day out in Great Yarmouth we headed to Wellington Bowl  to get out of the heat. 🎳 

Wellington Bowl is ideal for families - there are individual bumpers to stop those gutter balls, ramps for children and those awesome bowling shoes. We had so much fun battling it out to be the winner... it wasn't me though!🏆

You can also enjoy delicious food and drinks from the Bowl Diner. There was plenty of choice from the classic hot dogs and burgers and some great kid's meals. We ate in the bar but you can also sit outside with a great view or eat while you bowl. 🍔 

In a great location, there's loads more to do close by so make sure you visit on your next trip to Great Yarmouth.

The reality of sunflower fields... ​​​​​ The reality of sunflower fields... ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I was so excited to go and take pretty pictures in a sunflower field on our recent visit to Wroxham Barns. It's one of those things, like lavender fields, where you see people's beautiful photos. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
We didn't get many photos though... Erin and I were a bit too scared of just how many bees and wasps there were. Luckily, a few of the photo props were just far away enough for us to snap and run.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I couldn't believe Erin climbed into the tyre because there was ALOT of bees flying around (swipe to next image). As long as she stood really still once she was in there she was okay.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
John was braver than all of us and pretty much waded through into the middle of the sunflowers to be our photographer. How he didn't get stung I don't know.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Do you like sunflower fields?​​​​​​​​

On our girl's trip to London this month we made th On our girl's trip to London this month we made the most of Kid's Week with @officialLondonTheatre and got tickets for @thelionkinguk at the Lyceum Theatre. During Kid's Week you can get a child's ticket free with a paying adult so that saved us a bit of money. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
The whole production was amazing and the cast as animals will blow you away. If you want something really special then try to get an aisle seat in the stalls!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Finishing at about 10:10pm, Erin started to struggle a little bit towards the end but she powered through and said it was the best thing ever. I'd had a hard time picking what show to see but I think I chose the right one for Erin this time. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Erin declared The Lion King better than Frozen! Have you seen both? What do you think?​​​​​​​​

Has anyone ever been so excited to go on a pedalo? Has anyone ever been so excited to go on a pedalo?​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I've been promising Erin a trip on a boat for quite some time now so Center Parcs seemed to be the perfect place for it. You can choose from pedalos and electric boats, or, even a rowing boat.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
The pedalo was harder than I expected it to be and looking back I wished I'd paid more for the electric boat instead. However, seeing Erin's face as we went around the lake looking for families of ducks was well worth it. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
(The pedalo was £17 for 30 minutes and a 6 person electric boat was £30) ​​​​​​​​

AD | Summer at @wroxhambarns just got a whole lot AD | Summer at @wroxhambarns just got a whole lot better!

This year the addition of the Field of Fun gives you new things to do and discover. Get lost in the Maize Maze, take pretty pictures in the sunflower field and then have the most fun at the foam party! 

We stayed from opening to close (10am to 5pm) and we still didn't get chance to do everything. Also included in the price is the Junior Farm and the Fun Park so you're bound to be busy during your visit.

Yesterday was a pretty special day in North Walsha Yesterday was a pretty special day in North Walsham... Lauren Hemp was given Freedom of the Town by the Mayor. 

Hundreds of people turned out to see Lauren, who very patiently sat for nearly 2 hours to sign things and take pictures with people. 

Not only was it great to see so many people supporting Lauren but how great it is to see someone from your home town dream big and achieve something so amazing.

Center Parcs is a great place to try new things an Center Parcs is a great place to try new things and this year Erin gave Aerial Tree Trekking a go.

There are various different treetop adventures with this being the medium option (check heights etc. with Center Parcs) and the one that Erin was best suited for.

Although she was so excited at the beginning, to do something with her uncle, she was actually terrified most of the way around. With some encouragement from both her uncle and someone who works there, Erin managed to get the whole way around... with no tears!

There was definitely tears from the floor though as we were all crying being so super proud of Erin.

AD | London with children can be absolutely exhaus AD | London with children can be absolutely exhausting but you'll still want to see as many sights as possible. 

Hop on a @goldentoursuk bus and have a relaxing ride around London. Your ticket can be valid for 24, 48 or 72 hours and there are river cruise options too. 

You can get on and off the bus as much as you like while your ticket is valid. We took a tour from St. Paul's cathedral, seeing sights like Big Ben, The London Eye and Picadilly Circus. 

We really enjoyed our bus adventure in London and I would absolutely do it again, especially as there's another route we didn't have time to do!

Right now there are some great Disney on Stage pop ups dotted around with some fabulous photo opportunities... which Erin couldn't get to quick enough. 

Get to Covent Garden before 4th September to experience it for yourself!

​​​​​​​​
Today we're heading to London for an overnight stay. I made the most of Kids's Week with @londontheatre and got us tickets for The Lion King. I'm not sure who is more excited though! ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
There are so many shows I want to take Erin to see in London though so it was really hard to decide. I guess we'll just have to plan another trip soon. ​​​​​​​​
