Always save the tokens!!

Figured God wouldn't make me feel any better after a bad night, but a run would.. so did my 5k in 20mins even though I knew it would make me late. Still can't quite believe I can do it every time. Wish I could be as good at not faffing as I currently am at running.

Can you guess where we are going?!

Introduced Duncan to Munzee-ing before we had even made it out of the car park. Luckily he is quite amenable to suddenly wandering off in the opposite direction. So began our free day out at Alton Towers, courtesy of Nan and Nan saving tokens from the Sun.

Oblivion was shut first thing, and the queue for Smiler was 100mins, so we munzee'd our way to new places. Neither of us knew this was behind Oblivion..

And Duncan didn't even know you could go in the Towers, never mind go up here..

Possibly my favourite Munzees so far led us here (a 'battle axe' under the top stair)..

So, in our 'route by Munzee' we ended up doing Rita first. I noticed signs about some Big Six challenge.. which involved an App and QR codes, so like more Munzee-ing then! I don't think I will enter the Selfie competition though..

13 was made even better by the girl sat behind us, who clearly had never been on the ride before, and hence screamed.. a lot.

Route through the Gardens. Sadly none of the many Munzees were actually there.

On then to Air.. which is just lovely. Here Duncan found two things amusing.. my unsubtle Munzee hunting which I'm amazed did not lead to a chat with security, and my increasing lack of effort on the selfie front..

Nemesis next. Which didn't hurt as much as previously. Normally get a good ear bashing. Dunc's slo mo video of Nemesis looks so much better than my photo.

Another classy selfie.

Nemesis 2 horrid thing done. Is more like a sensory nightmare for ASD than a 'ride'. Through the haunted wood (Munzee filled) and back to X Sector. My favourite selfie after The Smiler, having uttered "oooh, squashy' during the ride!

Oblivion last (change to routine!!! stress!) where I failed on the photo pose yet again, cause I forgot where the camera was. Random souvenir though.. pencils were too expensive and these laces were not.

So, we did all of the Big Six, and successfully scanned all the QRs, which earned me this wristband. Which I need to wear on November 4th to get in for free!! So.. a free day out from a free day out!

So.. fab day (thanks Dunc for putting up with me) and 23 Munzees in total. Oh, and I went to the Ark for the first time in ages and had a grand time drumming, and then I worked out Close Encounters on the bell stick things. Me and Waddo should borrow them for the next 2-6am shift at HJs hehe..
