The day we went to Blackpool
Off toBlackpool, a seaside resort, which was like going back in time. Our hotel had some swans guarding the bed, and they didn't seem to like wombats!
So I ventured outside to watch the sunset over the beach which a local assured us was just like Surfers Paradise
Of course one must go up the Blackpool tower, The tower was built many years ago and is constructed of timber and rust. We were re-assured that should it ever fall, it will fall into the ocean. This made us feel much better when standing at the top!
Here it is again from a more distant viewpoint.
The illuminations are a feature of Blackpool, miles of tableaus and lights which can be viewed from special tours.
Or on foot.....
Off to the lakes district tomorrow...
More soon
