Over the summer Tracy and I did an epic 1600 ish mile trip around some of the UKs best theme parks. Over the course of two weeks, we visited:
- Blackpool Pleasure Beach
- Alton Towers
- Oakwood
- Paultons Park
- Thorpe Park
- Chessington World of Adventures
- Dreamland
- Adventure Island
- Fantasy Island
As well as the above, we also stopped off at Bovington Tank Museum and Clarence Pier, but we didn’t ride anything at Clarence Pier as the wristbands had sold out! The tank museum was an excellent day out if, like me, you’re into that sort of thing!
In subsequent blogs, I’ll breakdown each park we visited in turn, our experiences there and what we liked and didn’t like!
The only one I won’t be able to say much about is Dreamland at Margate as it wasn’t open when we arrived and, at time of writing, still isn’t open properly, so another visit will be needed there!
In all, we had an excellent trip all told, there were a few things we’d have done a little differently when we do something like this again, but otherwise nearly everything went brilliantly, with only a few little issues here and there!
The next blog will talk about Blackpool Pleasure Beach and our visit to Blackpool itself.
Stay tuned!
