wii ski

Advantages: great family fun
Disadvantages: n/a

...Wii is one of the greatest games consoles that I have ever purchased and I absolutely love all of the games that I have played on it to date. Wii Family Ski is a game that up to five people can play and requires the Wii Fit to be able to play. It took me a while to find the Wii Fit or as it is also known the balance board but I kept on searching and got there in the end. Wii Family Ski lets you create a character from scratch or you can import your Mii character too whilst selecting different ski gear for your character. You need to use the Nunchuck and Remote in your hands to use as ski poles and step on the Wii Board to really take advantage of this great game. The Wii Board takes over to allow the player to turn whilst skiing by measuring the swaying and leaning of the body. In Family Ski, there are 14 different slopes to...

Review of Family Ski (Wii)

Birds Eye View Of Barcelona

Advantages: Plenty to see and do, magnificent views, something for all the family
Disadvantages: Not a destination for those who suffer vertigo, amusement park is fairly tame

...It's almost impossible to explore Barcelona and fail to notice the north west side of the city is overlooked by the dominating rock of Mount Tibidabo elevated some 1695 feet (around 517 metres) above the city, the highest peak in the Serra de Collserola, separating Barcelona from the north plains (Les Planes). Mount Tibidabo, also known as Magic Mountain is home to the beautiful Temple de Sagrat Cor and Parc d'Atraccions del Tibidabo, the two most popular attractions but there's several other points of interest as well including Fabra Observatory and Museu dels Autòmats (although these won't be included in my review as I never visited either of them). A trip to the summit will reward visitors with the most stunning views of the city to the Mediterranean Sea but equally as impressive as the views atop Tibidabo is the journey to it...

Review of Tibidabo, Barcelona

Vicky Cristina Barcelona

Advantages: Interesting plot, great acting, Mr Bardem
Disadvantages: Action/drama fans may not be too keen

...Vicky Cristina Barcelona is a 2008 film written and directed by Woody Allen. Now, I'm no film buff; I like what I like and I wouldn't say I am a big film watcher when it comes down to it. Therefore I have never seen a Woody Allen film before so I really didn't care that it was one of his films as I have no prior experience of them. Sorry, that is maybe sacrilege to some! It stars Scarlett Johansson (Cristina) and Rebecca Hall (Vicky) as 2 friends who spend the summer in Barcelona, staying at one of Vicky's relative's houses. Shortly after they arrive, an artist named Juan Antonio Gonzalo (Javier Bardem) approaches them in a restaurant to invite them to a weekend in Oviedo with him, where they will 'drink wine and make love'. Cristina is very impulsive and romantic, and accepts the offer, whereas the more responsible and stai...
