The Loops & Lapbars 2024 Season!
So I feel the blog took a massive back seat last year thanks to YouTube and I hope to get back to writing about our exploits more regularly this year! So what better way to start than by having a brief run through of the season ahead. Starting off, there’s the new additions to the…

Euro Road Trip 2023
This is going to be a very quick blog just to outline our first ever European Road Trip! As I’m writing this I’m sat in Tracy’s front room eager to get on the road, but can’t as I’ll be far too early for our Euro Tunnel connection to Calais tomorrow! This will be our first…

Flight of the Sky Lion – A review
Flight of the Sky Lion is a flying theatre that opened at Legoland in 2021 as part of their Mythica expansion. The idea behind the ride is that you board the ride vehicle and are then taken away on a journey by a magical Sky Lion called Maximus into his dimension. The world is inhabited…

2022 Season review
Though we haven’t had quite as many brand new attractions to ride this year, we’ve visited more parks and done more events than last year. As with last year, I thought it would be fun to look back at the 2022 season, rank the events and new attractions we rode this year and reflect on…

Legoland – Fireworks!
For our final weekend of the season we decided on a trip to Legoland and Alton Towers to see both of their fireworks displays. I’ll go into Alton Towers’ display in a following blog but for now, here’s my thoughts on Legoland. The park wasn’t that busy throughout the day, only really getting busier closer…

Legoland – Brick or Treat Presents Monster Party!
Our fourth stop for this adventure was Legoland to revisit them for their Brick or Treat event. This year presenting the Monster Party! Our visit intially felt very rushed. We’d gotten to the park early enough so we were queuing to get in but by the time we were in and on the hill train,…

Halloween Holiday!
This year, we thought it would be a good idea to have a week away visiting various parks for their Halloween events. We were impressed with Alton Towers Scarefest in 2020 and last year’s Fright Nights at Thorpe Park, so it makes sense to have a tour of the big parks! The parks we’ve decided…

Let’s talk Vekoma Madhouses
As mentioned in a previous blog, I’d like to break down the various Vekoma Madhouse attractions that the UK has, compare and contrast their ride mechanics and themes and finally rank them. It won’t be that hard though as there are only 3 currently in the UK. Firstly I haven’t ridden Impossible at Blackpool Pleasure…

Legoland – What I’d do if I were in charge
Following on from my recent post about Flamingo Land, I thought it would be fun to tackle one of the UKs bigger parks this time around, Legoland Windsor! My first ever visit was only last year and I remember being underwhelmed with the overall experience. A subsequent second visit for Brick or Treat vastly improved…

2021 Season Review
What a season this has been! Starting all the way back in April at Drayton Manor, and finishing at Alton Towers for their incredible fireworks! I thought for this blog I’d do a mock awards ceremony, giving me chance to talk about highlights of specific parks, rides and attractions, and to voice a few opinions…

Brick or Treat – Legoland
A bit late, but here’s my blog on Brick or Treat at Legoland Windsor! This was only our second visit to Legoland, as we’d visited earlier in the year and initially we weren’t that impressed overall. However after another visit, my opinion of Legoland has vastly changed for the better, and I feel I was…
