The Stratosphere
Thursday 25th to
Saturday 27th October 2012

Friday 26th October 2012

You are invited to join us for a treasure hunt around Chester! A coach will leave the hotel car park at 12 o'clock and take us to Chester City Centre. Should you wish, you can meet us in Chester at the start of the treasure hunt for 1 'o'clock which starts and finishes at LITTLE ROODEE car park (Long Stay Pay & Display). The car park is behind Chester County Hall and alongside Chester Race course (its postcode is CH1 1SL if you want to use your Sat Nav).

The treasure hunt is envisaged to take 3 - 4 hours, depend on how long we spend on the pub stops! The hunt will involve walking around Chester so if you don't feel this is up your street, please don't feel obliged. Should you wish we could advise the proposed pub stops along the way, so you can do you own thing and meet up with the hunters over the afternoon. Obviously the hunt is outside so please be prepared for the great British weather!

Following completion of the hunt we propose to go for an early dinner at a restaurant in Chester, and following this the coach will take us back the hotel for some further socialising, and maybe a couple of games should you still have the energy!

So why the Stratosphere?

You may have heard this by now, but this is the restaurant in Las Vegas where I asked Jules to marry me, and she said yes! The tower is 350 meters high and has a rotating restaurant at the top along with some fairground rides, only in Vegas! The evening was one that we will both never forget and is a nice memory whenever we see the landscape of Las Vegas
