Disney Davy Crockett Ranch

Disney Davy Crockett Ranch is the cheapest of the official Disney accommodations available at Disneyland Paris. Located a short drive from the rest of the resort with no transportation provided, Davy Crockett also has the unique distinction of being the only resort where a car is required. For this reason, until recently, I still had […]

Spooky Season Round-Up 2023

As pumpkins pile up on the compost heap, and fairy lights begin to twinkle, it’s time to admit that spooky season 2023 is well and truly over. The most chaotic time of year has not disappointed this year, and I’ve been able to experience a whole variety of events, including, for the first time, a […]

Platypuses and Pumpkins at Hallowed Peak – The Lunar Festival

Phantom Peak opened in London back in August 2022, which means I’ve been planning to visit this attraction for approximately 14 months. Finally, with the launch of Hallowed Peak: The Lunar Festival for this year’s Halloween season, I’ve made the trip out to the far western town of Phantom Peak, and I’m here to tell […]

The Best and Worst Attractions at Every Disney Park I’ve Visited

Wow, what a snappy title! Well, I wish I could have left it at ‘every Disney park’, but sadly I’ve only visited the western parks so far, with Hong Kong, Shanghai and, most of all, Tokyo still on the to-do list. But with eight Disney parks under my belt, I still have a few strong […]

Discussing Everything Announced at Destination D23 2023

I’m a Disney Adult. There I said it. Let’s be honest, we all knew that, didn’t we? I’ve still got a few precious days left on my Disneyland Paris annual pass. My walls are adorned in attraction posters, and I’m currently sitting opposite every Walt Disney Animation Studios movie in chronological order… you get the […]

(Finally) Entering Valhalla at Blackpool Pleasure Beach

It’s over four months since the gates to Valhalla opened once more for brave adventurers, and last month I was lucky enough to finally enter the gates myself! After years of hearing nothing but effusive praise for this legendary water ride, I was more than a little bit hyped to finally experience it for myself. […]

Together on the Nautilus: A Disney Dash

When I planned a grand total of 34 hours in France, the mission was simple: renew my annual pass. This was all well and good until the week before I was set to depart, when the new Disneyland Pass was announced, the old passes withdrawn, and the renewal window halved to just one month meaning […]

A Brief Viking Adventure at Jorvik

Sometimes, I visit an attraction with absolutely zero intention of writing about it, but it turns out to be so excellent that I just don’t have a choice. Jorvik Viking Centre was one of these attractions. Located in the heart of York, on Coppergate, the centre sits on the site of a former Viking settlement. […]

USA 2022 Day 14: Six Flags Great Adventure

Well, we made it to day 14! The final full day of our USA trip, and the last one I’ll be writing about (unless anyone really wants to read about me lying in bed until midday, a broken mess, and sitting in JFK for 6 hours of course!) From Hersheypark, it was a mere two […]

USA 2022 Day 13: Hersheypark

Located in Hershey, Pennsylvania – a mere 400 miles from Cedar Point, our previous day’s park – is one of the most comprehensive rollercoaster collections in the United States, and it just so happens to be situated in a theme park themed to (questionable) chocolate! Of all the parks on our trip, I went into […]
