Blackpool

Blackpool is on the coast and looks just like Coney Island but on a grander scale. There was a music festival so all the devotees of this type of music were wandering around. It was heavy metal, punk rock and the like so it was quite a scene. We were the only ones without piercings and tattoos. They were very nice to talk to and they seemed delighted to talk to us.

Believe it or not, there is a TJMaxx there. Naturally we went in but they had schlock. It was just funny to see all the prices in pounds. There is also another discount department store there called Primart which even Jerry, the non-shopper, wants to go back to.

The water was freezing and rough but people went in. Crazy. We walked on the Promenade and just watched the sights. More to come about Blackpool.

 

Took a tennis lesson last night from the pro at the Barrett's tennis club. It was a great lesson. Have to go ow. More to come.
