Advantages: Loads of things to do Disadvantages: Have to pay to get in sometimes
...Heaton Park is the best park in the whole of Manchester. It has an old House which is open on certain days, there is a boating lake, there are sometimes fairs, and there is a bonfire on the 5 November. The park has a restaurant which can be hired for party's etc. There are bowling greens, football/rugby pitches, and a golf course with a shop/restaurant/bar. Heaton Park also has tram tracks which are used in the summer and a tram museum. The park is huge, with plenty of space for cycling, picnics or walking the dog. There is a farm and you can walk around and look at the animals, in summer there is the oppertunity to ride horses and donkeys....

Advantages: A nice quiet place Disadvantages: not what is was decades ago
...This is my first opinion back on caio as i have been away for a while and i can truthfully say i have missed it. I will be updating all my old opinions soon, so keep a look out.

The park was once a place where nobody would go because of the stolen cars and the local thugs but with the surrounding council areas getting demolished the park is now turning into a quite, fun place where you can sit doen and relax.
The park has got a five-a-side foootball pitch, a full size pitch,basketball court,maze, park and a wonderful stream which leads into a pond...

...Port aventura is the equivalent of disneyland to paris. I visited the park in August 07
I visited the park for 5 consevutive days. There is a theme park and Caribe Aquatic water park next to it. Tickets must be bought individually, however Port aventura tickets get 20% on the aquatic park tickets entry. Also the Tussauds Group annual pass in the UK gets free unlimed access to port aventura which is excellent.
I visited the park in August and I was thrilled that the park closes at 12 midnight (parks in the UK close at 8!!!) The aquatic park closes at 7pm. The rides are mostly for children 1.40m and above, (unless acompanied by adults) There are some rides for smaller children in a few places, however disappointingly babies/young todlers do not have any rides. However, like disneyland, there are Shows (Aloha Taihiti is a must see...
