To round off our Geekend (see what I did there?) we visited the Dr Who experience in Cardiff Bay. I had heard of it and had been told it was worth a visit but Cardiff had always seemed so far for just one exhibitions, even if it was Dr. Who. We booked in for an early afternoon tour, and had been the theme of the weekend arrived slightly early, only this time our luck had run out and we had to wait for out allotted time. We explored the gift shop and tapped into the free WIFI. I managed to sneak an extra slush drink from the machine and we waited, I tried to line up and was told I was too early and to wait. So we waited again, then finally it was our turn. I didn't know what to expect, museum?
What we experienced was an interactive experience, we were guest on the Tardis and we were being followed by enemies, we had to recover three crystals that the Tardis would use to safely return us to earth, Roger so far. We travelled to different "worlds" and encountered different challenges along the way. It was all quite exciting in that, I have paid for this so it will be exciting way. Then we got to a grave yard full of Weeping Angels. They are in my opinion the scariest thing on Dr Who, purely because I don't really understand them. I refused to blink the whole way round and it didn't help that one of my secretly taken photos is one of them about to pounce!
After the tour your are free to explore the prop warehouse, there are a few Tardis', one inside set and every enemy there has ever been. Recently my favourite character has been Missy and I loved being about to learn about her character. Some of the props were very scary, others were comical. It was a good day and well worth a visit.
