Overall really enjoyed our experience and we thought it was a great gift.

Overall really enjoyed our experience and we thought it was a great gift. The activity was fun and the picnic allowed us to visit lots of establishments that we wouldn't know to go to otherwise. My only issue was that there was too much food!! Not really a bad problem to have we just took quite a bit home with us. But it did mean there was quite a bit of time where the food was in the car before we could eat it.
