When Two Morning Walks Are Better Than One
I planned to walk the White Rock Pier this morning but didn’t know if I had the energy. I felt guilty because Buddy gets excited when he sees me putting my shoes on.

Royal Welcome (Blackpool)
The last week in June, we had a rare summer trip to Blackpool. Arriving on the Monday in glorious sunshine, we considered taking the new T3 tram from Blackpool North Station.

Walk along the promenade
Went for a Boxing Day walk down to the seafront, promenade and pier, you can see the many youngsters wearing their freshly unwrapped Christmas presents.
Even though the Brighton seas don't look as inviting as the gorgeous waters of Barbados, the sun shining and the crisp cool breeze made for a lovely day.
