Tuesday we spent acquainting ourselves with the surroundings of our village before heading off to Blackpool and doing a little shopping. We went to the Winter Gardens for lunch, where there was live music playing in one of the bars. In the evening we had dinner at home before going to the clubhouse for a night of dancing and a game of pool. Paul was very good and had a competition with Derek. We were equal, so no winners or losers! Christine excelled on the dance floor and won a bottle of fizz.
The next day, after a big breakfast Trevor went swimming, while Christine, Ian and Paul played crazy golf. Paul won, although it was a tight game. After lunch we went for a game of 10 pin bowling. It was great fun and the scores were high! That evening we dined at a local Indian restaurant where everybody seemed to enjoy a really good meal. It is always good to experience different foods! We spent the rest of the night at our club singing and dancing.
On Thursday we went to Lytham and spent some time on the pier playing in the arcade before heading back to Blackpool to visit the Tower. Inside the Ballroom we had lunch before stepping out and showing off our silky skills on the dance floor. Afterwards we went to see the circus. It was fantastic. We all thoroughly enjoyed today. That night we went to dinner at one of the best fish & chip shops in Lytham. After dinner we drove on to Blackpool once again, this time to see the fantastic light show. The illuminations go on for miles and although it was raining, it didn’t spoil the show! We finished off the evening back at our club.
Friday was packing day and after breakfast we set off on our journey home. We stopped off at a nice country pub for lunch before saying our fond farewells as we dropped one after the other home.
