It's December and in London that means one thing...it's time for Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park. Every year its been getting bigger and better and this year was no different! It feels like it has doubled in size this year and its certainly grown more popular. As we arrived we were greeted with a HUGE queue and had to wait about 40 minutes before we could get in. It was lovely to see all the excited kids, who couldn't wait to start having fun
There's a huge array of pretty awesome looking rides this year, most of which would not have mixed well with all the food and alcohol I consumed!
You won't be stuck for food at Winter Wonderland. There's so much to choose from and you're never more than 30 seconds walk from a food stall. I had a juicy Bratwurst, some of the others had burgers and for people with a sweet tooth there's doughnuts, sweet pretzels and shed loads of sweet stalls.
Once you've lined your stomach, you can move onto the bars and get yourself a tipple. There's loads of different bars to choose from, all selling german beer, mulled wine or cider and of course Jagermeister, for when you want to take the night up a notch.
