France/Switzerland Day 5 4th March 2024 (Lyon)
It was Monday and after a fun weekend around the Disneyland Parks it was time for us to part ways with Josh and Kirsty. We packed up, after a brief jaunt over to the local onsite camp farm, and checked out of the Nature Parc. I would highly recommend staying here and it’s sparked a…

France/Switzerland Day 4 3rd March 2024 (Disneyland Paris)
Sunday morning had a nice early start and I was enjoying the view of the parc before half 8. Kirsty and Josh had got supplies the night before and had a nice breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon to kick us off and of course the obligatory coffee. We were heading back to the Disney…

France/Switzerland Day 3 2nd March 2024 (Paris & Disneyland)
On the docket for Saturday was checking in to our accommodation for the next two days, Villages Nature Paris and exploring Disneyland Paris.

ibis Styles Paris Gare de l’Est Chateau Landon
Unfortunately I have to say this was a pretty poor stay overall. Aesthetically to start the hotel maybe needs a little refurb in parts, there’s a lot of wear and tear showing. We didn’t use it for the location but i would say its very very handy to Gare de l’Est Chateau Landon so big…

France/Switzerland Day 2 1st March 2024 (Cherbourg & Paris)

Check in was really smooth and friendly, no fuss and we had our keys within ten minutes.The location is obviously phenomenal, right in the center of the city, most things you’d want to see within walking distance. We got off at Brussels Central and were in the door…

Brussels Day 1 4th August 2023
We started our trip relaxed. Well I say relaxed, Katy was having carpets put down in her house so our wake up time was more abrupt than we thought it would be. We got sorted, left hers and headed to the Europa bus station as we’d pre-booked tickets to take us to Dublin airport from…

Cardiff Day Two (September 3rd 2022)/WWE Clash at the Castle
We were up, at it and out of the hotel for around 10AM on day two and more importantly, the day of the show (eeeeeeee)! We walked around from the hotel to the Morgan Arcade and grabbed an extremely tasty breakfast in Crumbs Café. My soup was incredible, even with the added caveat that I…
