day out!!

so yesterday a rare thing happened and we both had a day off together and we went out for the day! Wahoooo! Although it took 2 1/2 hours to get there it was worth it! We went to Butlins at Skegness now normally in half term this would have been a really expensive day out but we only payed £6 each! (£18 as Ellie was free!) once we arrived there was a queue to get in but the staff were very good and very quick at getting people in so we wasn't waiting in a queue for long. Once we were in side we noticed there was alot of work going on with in butlins its self. Roofing going up over the smaller rides, arcades being changed and circus leaving as a few but none of this spoilt the day the staff were still as ever very helpful, welcoming and happy which was lovely! Every where was still very clean too which is a big thing for me! We did some of the fair ground rides and the soft play we took a walk to the beach again I was so clean and welcoming the sun was shining which made it so much nicer puts every one in a good mood! We then walked back in to the skyline\centre stage were we caught barney and a puppet show then headed to the swimming pool. Now this has to be my personal favorite the pool! It's so family friendly but at the same time has something for every one! Ellie loved the kids pool this year, and the lazy river, Alexa loves that she can go on the big rides the raft rife and the rapids are her favourites as wells as all of it being warm enough that we can spend ages in there were as some pools are so cold you can't stay in that long. Again all of the facilities were clean and all staff very good! There was the odd life guard who looked like they forgot how to smile but I put that down to concentrating. Its safe to say none of us wanted to leave. I would recommend butlins Skegness to anyone looking for a lovely day out and you can make it a full day out too!

well done Butlins and Thank you!
