Our thoughts:

We were lucky enough to have nice sunny weather so it was great for travelling and walking around. There was quite a lot of different buses that we had to catch to finally arrive at our destination but overall the travelling was well worth it. There was a wide variety of 'things' to see at Kelly Tarltons even a few rides. It was probably more suitable for younger children and isn't as exciting for teenagers from the ages of 13- 18 and also had a high entry fee which wasn't so nice for the wallet, but if you haven't visited it before it is definitely worth while having a day out to look at. After Kelly Tarltons we took about a 10 minute walk towards the local Mission Bay shops where there were a few places to buy lunch as well as a lovely beach which is perfect for a picnic.
