Blackpool is officially the cheesiest place ever! Apparently it is similar to New York's Coney Island. We had a great time, despite the cheese. Bit of traffic coming in, adding an hour to our trip. Once we made it in, Jenn desperately needed a loo, and found the only ones closeby required a...

Chips chips and more chips

The Olllllld City of York

You can either drive into York and pray you find parking or you can use the Park and Ride! We opted for the Park and Ride... cost us 5 pound to park, then ride the bus into York... not a bad deal! Owen loves riding city buses anyway, we have found. Using the Park and Ride also reduces...

Jellyfish

After supper we decided to go fly kites in New Brighton... Dave (brother-in-law), Charlotte (niece), Nathan (nephew), Owen, Derek and Jenn. Unfortunately the tide was up at the beach with the good wind, so we found another area of the beach where the tide was low. The kids even found a...

Made It!

Made it to Heathrow airport. Derek tried to convince the flight attendants to give us some first class sleeping pods, but they just smiled and laughed. We made our way to our seats and found that the one remaining seat in our row was empty! We all settled in, ate our dinners and watched...
