So, last week I went on a little holiday break to the west coast of England (I think?). I have family in Preston, which is half hour away from Blackpool. So we spent 2 nights in Blackpool and 2 nights in Preston, which was a lovely little getaway. So, I thought I'd write a post about it now as I didn't have the chance to post all last week.
Trains, my favourite things ever, yet when you're on them for 4 hours and there's two crying babies on your carriage, it becomes my least favourite thing ever. Thanks to Blink-182, some good headphones and this thing called "full volume", thankfully, I made it through.
We arrived at this cute little b&b on one of the side streets, freshened up and went to find a restaurant to eat at, typically, Nando's. Chicken,chicken and more chicken. Then sat at a posh little bar on the front where I sipped Pimms and watched the sunset before taking a stroll on the tacky yet wonderful strip on our walk home.
The next day, my inner child was released as we went to Pleasure Beach. Adrenaline was in the air as hearts raced and que sized multiplied. Going on the infamous "Pepsi Max/The Big One", I got thrown around and plunged at high speeds. But my favourite had to be "Revolution", scary name, thrilling ride. Bad action shots on rides were all around. After many more we played in the arcades there and finally went home before taking another evening walk on the strip/promenade.
Finally on our last day, we went to Madame Tussadues and The Blackpool Dungeons. I was very disappointed as there was no Johnny Depp wax work, but all the same I still very much enjoyed getting pictures with David Attenborough and walking across Abbey Road with the big four. The dungeons however was slightly more daunting, after visiting the London ones twice, I knew what I was in for. Bad smells, creepy actors and a history lesson I'll never forget. Always a great place to visit no matter what age you are (aka; even my grumpy dad enjoyed).
All in all I had a great time and consumed more sweets than I should of. I hope you enjoyed my little summary of my break.
Also, a product review shall be coming your way this week.
Thanks for reading,
With Love,
