It's nearly the end of term and this one cannot wa It's nearly the end of term and this one cannot wait to go on some adventures during the Easter holidays.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ We're starting off with a girls' trip to London for a couple of nights. It's been a bit stressful planning this one because it seems that SO MUCH is closed in London on a Monday. However, we have some fun plans to go to the Tower of London and to see Matilda, which we're so excited about.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ The 2nd week we get to go away as a family to Stratford-upon-Avon, somewhere we've never been before. This will be the furthest we've ever driven as well so that's a new adventure all on its own. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Do you have plans for the Easter holidays? Let me know what you'll be getting up to. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans #FamilyTravel #TravelBlogger #NorfolkBlogger #London #LondonForFamilies #VisitLondon #StratfordUponAvon #Warwickshire #EasterHolidays #HalfTerm

The Great Fire of London, one of the history topic The Great Fire of London, one of the history topics I loved learning about at school. This year it's Erin's turn and while we were in London in December we decided to go up the Monument!​​​​​​​​​ 🔥 Best time to visit? - if you want to go up while there aren't a lot of other people then aim for first thing in the morning, as soon as the Monument opens. We did this at 9:30am and there was only about 10 people, including us. 🔥 There are 311 steps up a spiral staircase. This is the only way up and down and you might have to go past other people on the stairs. 🔥 There are some very small areas where you can stop on the way up to take a break. 🔥 The views from the viewing platform are spectacular. See how many different things you can see! 🔥 The whole experience should take less than an hour, depending on how long it takes to get up the steps and how long you spend on the viewing platform. 🔥 Everyone gets a certificate if you manage to go up to the top! Kids will love this! Have you climbed the spiral stairs at the Monument before?

Ghent is such a fun city to visit, and you can eas Ghent is such a fun city to visit, and you can easily see a lot of it in just 1 day. ​​​​​​​​​ One of our absolute favourites was a walk down Graffiti Street. Although I had heard about it before our visit, I had no idea where it was and we happened to stumble upon it by accident. The street art changes so you never really know what you're going to see. Erin was particularly happy to see some characters she knew. More like an alley than a street, it can get busy but people tend to move along quite quickly and are patient if you're trying to take a picture. You'll find some ideas of how to spend your time in Ghent over on travelwiththeohallorans.com today! #TravelBlogger #TravelTheWorld #Belgium #ExploreBelgium #TheOHallorans #TravelWithTheOHallorans #Ghent #GraffitiStreet #VisitGhent #Gent #StreetArt
Norfolk's Bure Valley Railway is open again for th Norfolk's Bure Valley Railway is open again for the season and we visited yesterday while there was an offer for half price tickets. The train runs between Aylsham and Wroxham, with times varying depending on when you want to visit. We picked up our tickets at the office and went off to find our own little compartment. We loved seeing the train being prepared for its journey before we got ourselves comfortable. Steam trains are fascinating and we really enjoyed seeing it in action. The journey between stations is 45 minutes each way. I'd recommend doing Aylsham to Wroxham, with a few hours in the middle so you can explore. There's much more to do in Wroxham than in Aylsham. At £19 return for adults and £10 for kids (full price) it's not the cheapest of days out so be sure to look out for offers. #TravelBlogger #TravelTheWorld #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans #NorfolkForFamilies #Norfolk #NorfolkBloggers #BureValley #100MarSnaps #SteamTrain #BureValleyRailway #Wroxham #Aylsham @burevalleyrailway1991
It's March and that means it's my birthday this mo It's March and that means it's my birthday this month, along with Mother's Day! This happens to be my last quiet month too, as we have LOADS going on between April and September. Between trips away and weekend plans, we don't have many free days at all. Still, I wouldn't have it any other way as I love being busy and going on adventures.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are you looking forward to in March?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Norfolk #Norwich #TravelBlogger #TravelTheWorld #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans #NorfolkBloggers #March #Pisces #MothersDay #TravelPlanning #TravelPlans #100MarSnaps
AD | Press tickets Last night I went to the openin AD | Press tickets Last night I went to the opening night at @NorwichTheatre for Girl from the North Country and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. The show is set in a guesthouse in Minnesota during 1934, where life wasn't the easiest for a colourful range of characters. You meet a husband who is having an affair while his wife struggles with mental health, all under the same roof, an alcoholic son, and a family who was once wealthy but is now struggling. With the difficult subject matter, strong language and violence, this show might not be for everyone but I was drawn in from the very first second. The cast are phenomenal, both in performance and vocals, and you'd find it hard not to fall in love with them. Girl from the North Country is on until 4th March in Norwich. You can read the full review on mehimthedogandababy.com today! #Theatre #TheatreLife #BobDylan #GirlFromTheNorthCountry #WestEnd #Musical #Norfolk #Norwich #TravelBlogger #TravelTheWorld #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans #NorfolkBloggers @dylanmusical
What better way to end the weekend than with fish What better way to end the weekend than with fish and chips at the coast! John's been working a lot these week and we needed a fun family day out. Starting at Redwings in Aylsham we spent some time with the horses before moving on to Cromer. It might have been freezing but it was nice to get out, having a walk and a nice lunch. #TravelBlogger #TravelTheWorld #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans #NorfolkForFamilies #Norfolk #NorfolkBloggers #Cromer #100FebSnaps #FishAndChips #Haddock #No1Cromer #CromerPier #Cromer #CromerBeach
A quiet start to our weekend as John has been work A quiet start to our weekend as John has been working today. Erin and I had a little hot chocolate date at Costa, where I was talked into getting her a biscuit and sausage bun! We always take a games book out with us that contains noughts and crosses, hangman and squares. I first found the book in Flying Tiger in Brno, but we now have them over here. I need to stock up while I can! What are you doing this weekend? #100FebSnaps #TravelBlogger #TravelWithTheOHallorans #TheOHallorans @costacoffee #Costa #NorfolkDaysOut #NorfolkForFamilies #NorfolkBloggers #NorthNorfolk #HotChocolate
