Easy to book. Must-do cruise (very happy to have booked in advance as it was very sunny and there would have been a big queue if we had booked on the day). Moco: interesting collection, again very busy so glad to have tickets booked.

That you could download audio. I liked the Robbie Williams pieces. The portrait where if it downloaded the app you were going to move that. Very surprising. And of course the spaces with the light and stuff.
