… Go to the Fall Festival?

Posted on 25. September 202225. September 2022 by lyoness

We were at Duisburg Zoo yesterday, when the sun was shining, so today, when it was rainy and cool, we JUST wanted to go to the post office in town, but we happened upon the fall festival… And here it goes. Lyons Cub went bungy jumping (which he already enjoyed as a toddler), fishing for…

… Visit the Duisburg Zoo?

Posted on 24. September 202230. September 2022 by lyoness

This was Lyons Cub’s third zoo visit today! The first one was Nashville Zoo in 2019, and the second one was 2021, when we went with grandma to the Wuppertal Zoo. Alas, it was very hilly there and not easy to navigate with a senior and a stroller. It was quite exhausting, although the variety…

… Invest in Green Energy Shares for Your Child?

Posted on 18. September 202218. September 2022 by lyoness

What’s it like to invest in green energy shares for your child? I want to prepare for harder times to come (especially with regard to the energy crisis fueled by the war in Ukraine, and the climate crisis), so that my son has a nest egg to fall back on when he needs it in…

… Climb the High Ropes Course at Oki Doki?

Posted on 11. September 202225. December 2022 by lyoness

Today was Lyons Cub’s third visit to an indoor playground, and this one was special! After having experienced GeckoFun in Burscheid and Hoplop in Cologne, we visited Oki Doki in Langenfeld. While GeckoFun was small and nice for parents to attend because they could watch their kids from a comfy seating area, Hoplop was huge…

Mind Maze

Posted on 10. September 202210. September 2022 by lyoness

Today, we are reviewing an old Parker Brothers game from the 1970s. It’s called Mind Maze, and I bought it for my husband David from an online antiques seller some time around 2015 or so. It says it’s for 8 years and upward, but I played it with my 4-year-old son. It worked a couple…

… Hold a Snake at Circus Florida?

Posted on 7. September 20228. September 2022 by lyoness

Today, Lyons Cub proved his bravery — he held an albino king python for the first time in his life!!! Given that his mommy used to be a vendor at reptile shows as LZRDGRL in Wheaton/Chicago, Indianapolis, Sheperdsville, and the Memphis Repcticon from 2010-2014, he totally steps into her shoes, heehee… This was his third…

5 Attractions to Visit in Irrland Amusement Park

Posted on 4. September 20224. September 2022 by lyoness

Yay, this is our third day in the Irrland theme park already! We have already climbed on haystacks, fed goats and chickens, raced on tricycles, climbed on towers, and jumped on trampolines on our first day in the park, and inspected planes, gone down giant slides, played with connecting pipes on sand hills, slid down…
