Travel Timehop #2
Welcome to my Travel Timehop where I let you have a sneaky peek between the pages of our holiday photo albums. Each week, or as regularly as I can, I am sharing a photographic moment from our travels during the past 10 years.
This week, it’s a festival themed snap. And oh look, in true British festival tradition, it rained!
When are we time-hopping to?
This week’s Travel Timehop is a throwback to 2011, and the days when Mr Tin Box and I would stay up late and drink cider until we could face the festival toilets no more.
Where in the world?
We were enjoying the muddy delights of the Isle of Wight Festival. Mr TB had booked the tickets while he was on deployment with the Royal Navy earlier in the year. It was something exciting to look forward to when he returned.
Luckily, we only had to put up with the great British summertime during the day as we had booked a holiday cottage in Cowes to stay in overnight. It also meant hot showers and cooked breakfasts each morning – yum!
Timehop moment
This photo was taken on the Sunday of the festival while we were waiting for The Script to come on the main stage.
Tin Box fact: the day before, in sunnier weather, we took the picture that is now my social media avatar and my Travel Timehop badge.
I love hearing what people think about my blog so feel free to leave a comment below and browse around. You can also find me on Bloglovin’, or follow me on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and Pinterest.
![[AD] There’s some super spooky family fun to be had at @ChinaFleetCountryClub this half term as its Woodland Adventure Golf course has been taken over by Halloween ghouls.
We visited for a damp round this morning and had a giggle trying to beat each other’s scores while the course’s talking tree told frightfully bad Halloween jokes and creepy mist floated around.
You can visit China Fleet in Saltash, Cornwall, for a scare-tastic round of adventure golf from 9am until 10pm until Sunday 1 November. You don’t need to book in advance.

I missed the festivals thing by having kids!! I would love to go when the children are a little older! Even in the rain
That's so cool. I have never been to Isle of Wight Festival but I'd love to, maybe next year!

We only went to the IoW and one day at Reading before we started our family. There's loads of family-friendly events around the country and I hope that we'll be able to try out some in the next few years. Thanks for popping by! X
It was pretty awesome but I'm so glad we didn't have to sleep in a water-logged tent. That would not have been so fun. Otherwise, I can recommend the IoW Festival 100 percent. Thanks for commenting x
I have never heard of the Isle of Wight Festival but it looks great. Love your timehop idea. Great to look back on amazing trips. Thank you so much for linking up to Share With Me. Hope to see you again soon. #sharewithme
Love live music and I'm gutted I didn't do the proper big festivals before kids. I try and get to a decent concert or stadium concert each year though without the kiddos and we have been doing Camp Bestival since 2010 – can highly recommend 🙂
oh I love this weeks travel time hop. Isle of wight looks amazing and its on my to do list. would love to go the festival too. Thanks for linking up #FlashbackFriday
