Beach Time!

Meet me in the bedroom in five minutes and bring a cattle prod - Woody Allen.

Welcome to our Sunday in Blackpool 🗼

I woke up at 5.30am, couldn't sleep for the loud snoring from Sleeping Beauty.

I enjoyed a cup of brew.

Hubby wakes up when I put on the table lamp.

I make him a cup of tea.

 I write out the postcards.

I have a hot shower before breakfast.

Lovely breakfast.

Now out we go...

Tram time.

Back on the tram to ...

Looks in more Charity Shops.

Coffee time in Costa Coffee.

While we sat there, someone was preaching to a man about Jesus. Reading it outloud from his phone!

We bought a Parasol for the beach later.

Looked at the beach.

Into Home Bargains to look about.

Catches the tram back to the B&B.

Drops off bargains.

Collects things for the beach.

Waits for the tram.

Goes to Velvet Rollercoaster for lunch.

Now to hit the beach!

The parasol lasted only half an hour as it broke in the wind!

Didn't like the look of those dark clouds coming over.

The Go-Karts track isn't there no more.

While we waited at the tram stop.

A tram went past us on the other line down to Star Gate.

While we stood waiting, a six year was playing with her younger sister's pushchair, until it fell backwards. Both parents just sat there and let it happen!

One woman just looks at me is disbelief as one of the parents picked up the pushchair.

When we get on the tram, two kids aged between 6-7 were dangling off the hand straps and standing on the near-by seats. Their mum and grandma ignored them, until they heard my eyes roll.One tells them to get down and sit by them. One passenger then gets on, and puts his rucksack down on the seat next to himself.

I was glad to get off at the next stop.

We hit the corner shop for more supplies.

Tea time.

Back to the room to plan out tomorrow.

With rain mac.

I got a nice windmill for my parent's grave and nice towels with poms poms attached.

Quick look again in the newspaper.

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫

The sun is coming out \o/

Nice hug to start Humpday with.

Dressed.

Now for a nice breakfast...

Yum!

Now out in the sunshine.

We waited at the tram stop.

We waited half an hour for a tram.

Then the bus came, and that was full.

There another tram arrived, and we got on to it.

We got off at Cleveleys.

Coffee stop!

The market was on.

We looked around the market, then sat on the sea wall to look at the beach.

Off to get some supplies....

I got a nice bag!

We caught the tram back to B&B.

Dropped off our bargains we bought earlier.

Packed our beach things.

Nice vintage tram went past.

Then off to the beach...via tram.

The view from the beach.

Look who dropped their hat in the sea!

Went back to sit down and try more crochet!

Hubby was carving a heart into the sand.

Back to the B&B on the tram
Nice Mango drink on the way home.

Nice Chinese Take-Away for tea.

As we are changing rooms after breakfast.

Best make the most of the bed!
