Disney’s Sequoia Lodge

The last time I stayed in Disney’s Sequoia Lodge was November 2018. Back then it instantly became my favourite hotel stay ever, with its beautiful Christmas decorations, rustic charm and tranquil nature winning me over immediately. So when we booked this trip back to Disneyland Paris for the tail end of the Christmas season, I […]

My Top 10 Rollercoasters 2022

With 185 new rollercoasters ridden in 2022, what were my absolute favourites?

The Ridiculous Wonder of Harmonious

EPCOT (as it’s now stylized) is in a period of flux. What had been planned to be a moment of rebirth, beginning with the renaming of the park’s lands and later bringing us whole new pavilions and even a hub for the park’s relentless festivals has instead taken a bit of a stumble and well… […]

Riding Orlando’s Latest, and Greatest, Rollercoasters

Escaping the Raptors at Universal’s Great Movie Escape

When it was announced that Universal Orlando Resort’s newest attraction would be opening its doors whilst I was in town, I knew we’d have to give it a go!

Is Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party Worth It?

At Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, unless you’re brave enough to visit on the busiest week of the year, almost all festive entertainment is locked away behind a mile-high paywall. So, is it really worth laying down all that money? There’s no getting around how hideously expensive this party is. Prices vary by date, but […]

USA 2022 Day 8: Six Flags St Louis

Honestly, I might as well just call this blog ‘Mr Freeze & Justice League Were Good’. But for fear of messing up the series, let’s have a chat about our somewhat brief visit to Six Flags St Louis. Earlier in this blog series, I mentioned how the Carowinds car park convinced me that theme park […]

See You Later, Nemesis

Nemesis almost made me hate rollercoasters. As far as openings to love letters go, that sure wouldn’t get me a second date. But honestly, the first time I rode this beast, I began to think that maybe rollercoasters were too much for me. I exited that first ride shaking, clinging to the handrail for support, […]

Spooky Season 2022: Night at the (Drayton) Manor

Right now, Drayton Manor is without a doubt one of the most exciting theme parks in the country. Having come back from the brink of closure just a few short years ago, we’ve seen the park install a fantastic new land – Vikings – this year as well as tease some more very big things […]
