RE: Grand Days Out in Blackpool - '♪Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside! I do like to be beside the sea.♪'

in #pinmapple2 years ago (edited)

I am not sure I had been to Blackpool before our visit last year. We really just went for the Pleasure Beach and had a good day, despite some rain. We had a walk along the front afterwards and it was looking a bit run down. Found a chip shop that was nothing special. We did drive further up past the tower just for a look, but I'm not that bothered about most of the attractions. I do enjoy a Sea Life though. Our family has a tradition of playing the coin push machines, but we'll only spend a couple of quid between us. The British seaside experience is an odd thing. People don't find it so exciting when they can jet off to exotic places. The resorts may welcome the stag/hen parties to get some trade, but otherwise I'd expect it's a lot of old folk or families with young kids.

Maybe add a #blackpool tag. Some of them should relate to the content and not all be for tokens. Those tend not to be worth much anyway.

We tend to go for a walk, my Wife likes to visit the shops and browse around.

We have a yearly ritual of 'going to see the lights', but then don't look at them as we walk to promenade.

We rarely bother with the beach too, but it's nice to get out and have some fresh air and it don't get much fresher than on the coast.

Thanks for the advice on the tags, didn't know there was a Blackpool one :), I'm still learning.

Resorts like this are designed to separate you from your money. Obviously we paid a bit for the rides, but it was good. I'm not one for sitting on a beach and we do like exploring places.

You can use anything as a tag, but I think it's good to have some that people might actually look for. I can see there are quite a few Blackpool posts. I thought I posted about when I was there, but I don't see it.
