Blackpool

Hello! Hello! Hello! So, there we have it. We saw the sea!

We packed my bag full of sandwiches, sherbet lemons, iPod and magazine and set out for Blackpool.

After missing out on the sunshine over the past week (but earning pennies instead) I was confident it would rain. I was wrong, joy!

To be very honest, the first part of the day was delightful. Walks on beach, breathing in the sea air, wins at the amusements (but losing at air hockey…meh) and tasty salad for lunch with fine cider. It was a nice way to spend the last few days of the Indian Summer.
The Afternoon? The novelty had worn off and we were ready to come home. A few wrong turns to get to the train station made us realise we wouldn’t be coming back soon. Not so pretty, my friends. Ah well, I’m happy we got to see the sea. I’ll sleep soundly tonight…
