A Lancashire Holiday

Hey guys!!!
Â
Sorry it’s been a while since I blogged, however I was kidnapped the day after I finished by exam by my lovely mother (who is very lovely). We (my mum, my grandma and I) went to lancashire with my mum’s cousins and their two and a half year old son. We stayed in a caravan site, in Fleetwood, near Blackpool. I was amazed by the scenery around, having thought Blackpool would be all amusements and ‘golden mile’ type thing. Actually, we never reached Pleasure Beach, we just saw the tower on our first day and built sandcastles.
The rest of the time was spent in Lancashire and the Lake District, both of which were beautiful. We had really good weather luckily, and the views were fabuloso!! I took so many pictures and recordings on my phone that the battery ran out twice in two days.
Â
We saw pheasants, lots of sheep and little lambs, wild boar, deer, horses, llamas, domestic pigs, rabbits, seagulls, crabs, lobsters, herons, swans, geese and we hand fed ducks!!!!!! Oh yes, and the people were so friendly!!! Everyone said ‘hello, how are you?’ and ‘are you on holiday?’ It was great!!Â
Staying in one caravan with a two and a half year old who’s full of energy, loves attention and being loud, required some patience. But I have never met a happier child. We took him on steam-engines and buses and gave him lots of piggy-backs. In the evening, when he was asleep, the rest of us played scrabble and watched the news.
Good fun, but I think a week was enough for all of us.
Yay sandcastles ^^ The Lake District is particularly beautiful. Do we get to see photos? Wild Board. Awesome. Truffles?
Glad you had a good time, the little feller must have loved it too :]
Sounds so nice. It must’ve been a really nice break straight after examness. I’ve never been to the lake district, it sounds gorgeous, and it was lucky you went while we had such nice weather too :happy:
I really want to go to the Lake District. It never gets bad press- in every tv series or book it sounds beautiful. Now you cant testify to that :happy: . Glad you enjoyed it.
