Over-priced food, busy rides, and freezing weather – what else but Winter Wonderland! My sister and I visited Winter Wonderland a few days before Christmas to enjoy the lights and sights, especially as both of us have not been for a few years. We enjoyed a few (expensive!) rides, and had a look around to enjoy the fun vibe in the air and the beautiful lights. One of the things we liked as well was exploring the market which is around the area, which sells lovely hand-made goods and pretty pieces.
I’m not sure I’ll be going again next year as I did find the rides and food very expensive – we easily spent over £30 on two rides which felt a little extortionate, especially as most theme park tickets now cost this much. It is a seasonal thing and it has a nice atmosphere, but it makes me think that Winter Wonderland is an example of a seasonal thing which has become too commercialised, which takes advantage of the holiday season to make a lot of money! While I understand that this is normal for the Christmas season, I have decided a long while ago that when I do spend my money, I’d like to spend it on things which are worth it, good value and also enjoyable!
But that’s enough for now – here’s a few snaps I took at Winter Wonderland. Unforunately my phone camera is great at night time, but I did try!
