00:00This summer holidays my family and I went along to Alton Towers. You never expect a cheap day out

00:06at a theme park nowadays but it did cost us over 30 quid each but then if we wanted fast track

00:13passes it was over 65 quid each. We ended up buying a fast track pass just for individual rides which

00:20only cost £10 per ride per person but sadly we were still waiting in queues for over half an hour

00:29so we made the most of it. We did the odd big ride but most importantly we had a brilliant time in

00:37CBB's land. This is for preschool aged children so it was perfect for the toddler whilst the big kids

00:44ran off and waited ages for different big rides like the Nemesis Reborn. It was a fabulous day out

00:51but far too much queuing and the hot dogs cost £15.50 for a hot dog and a drink. Ouch!

00:59My best ride in Forbidden Valley though is always the cable cars. Whilst it was a 20 minute queue to

01:06get on a cable car you do see the full bird's eye view of Alton Towers theme park.

01:12I'm going to get on a cable car. I'm going to get on a cable car. I'm going to get on a cable car. I'll get on a cable car.
