The Royal Artillery Museum is now permanently closed which is unfortunate, we were told that it was because Greenwich Council sold the place for development. Which is very unfortunate as the collection was precious. Only 2 days before closing and they received confirmation that one of their “unknown” displays was the gun used to blast the…
GERMANY | Burg Hohenzollern
I just realised that I haven’t posted some of our trips to various parts of Germany from our holiday in 2012. Understandably, this is the year I got separated from my family for around 3 months. Hohenzollern Castle is the ancestral seat of the Prussian Royal House and of the Hohenzollern Princes. With two little children,…
Innorobo 2016 video
Earlier this week we went to Paris to see the robots. We made this video to show my classmates in school what an interesting event it was. For me anyway, most specially when I saw all these new cute, weird and scary robots and when I ate some of the 3d printed chocolate in the…
Caernarfon to Beddgelert steamtrain

Unfortunately for us, the weather wasn’t ideal for more outdoor exploration. The children did find a lot of nook and crannies to hide. Inside the…
Visiting Leeds Castle
We love visiting places and one gorgeous place we wanted to check out is Leeds Castle. We didn’t know much about this place aside from the fact that the the road signs kept reminding us of it whenever we drive by. So we decided to finally get there. It’s a gorgeous castle with a beautiful…
Yeovilton Air Day 2015
We recently drove to Somerset for the Yeovilton Air Day to see the last flight of the Vulcan. It was held at the Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton, Somerset and offers over 5 hours of spectacular displays. There was a huge variety of display on the ground as well. M1 enjoyed it I think 🙂 To be…
