Tomorrow is the final day of 2019 & this decade. So it’s only right we take some time to reflect and look back on not just this year but the entire decade. We hope you enjoy this blog and as always we would love to know your highlights.
Of course, let’s begin with something which made us the happiest which was getting engaged at Disneyland Paris. As for the entire trip it was truly beautiful and everything we had hoped. If you haven’t checked out our blog post from that trip we will leave the link HERE.
We decided earlier this year to attempt to complete the UK parks admittedly it didn’t go all that to plan. But we did manage to get a few locals such as Wicksteed & West Midlands Safari done. We also managed to visit Paultons Park & Dreamland MARGATE.
2019 has been a pretty big year for us as bloggers & social media content creators. We were so grateful to be voted the winners of the fab Clamshell Awards this year. It meant the world to us and really has shown just how many love our work. We are also going out of 2019 with almost 2K (1.8K) on Instagram and double our followers on Facebook & Twitter. If you don’t already follow our social media accounts be sure to! I’d say another one of our achievements was successfully pulling off the latest Interview Monday blog series.
One of the bigger events of the year was the birthday celebrations for Nemesis at Alton Towers. There were opportunities to meet John Wardley, new merchandise and extended ride time on Nemesis.
So wimpy me managed to get my shit together and brave many scare mazes except those with hoods, definitely not that brave. Turns out I bloody adore Halloween season every area of it is so much fun and it was lovely to visit SO many new places.
Of course this decade has been full of visiting new places and experiencing such a variety of rides. Within this decade we visited PortAventura World, Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, Dreamland, Paultons Park, Wicksteed & West Midlands Safari. For me I visited Chessington & Pleasurewood Hills for the first time. Ant visited Disneyland Paris, Legoland Windsor & Blackpool Pleasure Beach for the first. Alongside all of those parks come a whole heap of different rides.
We’ve always had a soft spot for theme parks but we really got into them around 2015. We then purchased season passes and the rest was history.
With becoming an enthusiast meeting new people tend to come hand in hand. So we’ve manage to meet friends for life through sharing the same love for theme parks. It’s been truly lovely meeting so many new friends.
Without a doubt there’s been plenty of downs within the decade but all told there’s been so many incredible memories. We’ve made some of the best memories and stories we will forever talk & laugh about. But thank you to each & everyone of you we appreciate the continuous support and love you give us. We hope you all have had a lovely year & have the best new year & new decade.
Thank you so much for reading…
