🎢 10:50 AM | Farmyard Flyer | All Paulton’s coaster credits cleared in under an hour. Farmyard Flyer wraps it up—a solid little family ride. Hard not to admire how well even the simplest attractions are themed here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

2:20 PM | Room on the Broom | A charming little walk-thru with some light interactivity. Super cute and genuinely unlike anything I’ve seen before. RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2:10 PM | Zoo | Some construction suggests improvements are coming, but for now it’s a basic animal walkthrough. Still, cute critters and it’s included with admission. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

🦒 1:50 PM | Zoofari | Short but decent. The “cave” section—aka metal shed full of diesel fumes—might need a rethink. RATING: ⭐️⭐️

11:25 AM | The Gruffalo | A charming little water-based dark ride. The tiny rafts make it feel extra cozy. Audio hard to hear, but still a good experience. RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🎢 10:45 AM | Mandrill Mayhem | Better than expected. Tons of hang time and the launches delivered enough. Getting in line for a second lap now.

🎢 9:20 AM | Vampire | Buzzed Bars ERT at Chessington kicked off with 3 laps on Vampire. Laps in the middle, front, and back. Theming carries this one, and those suspended floorless trains flying over the midway are the moment! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🍔🥤 4:50 PM | The Pheasant Inn | Bacon cheeseburger w/ chips, salad, slaw + an Alpaca Lypse IPA. $35 total (USD est). Big portions, great chips, slaw above avg. Burger needed seasoning or sauce. IPA was standard, but the glass art was a cool.

Dove into Deep Sea Adventure after a 15-min wait. Kids dig it, but it feels like it never quite dives below the surface—short and leaves you wanting a bit more. ⭐️⭐️ #LegolandWindsor
