I went to Blackpool last week and it will be a day i will remember for the rest of my life. The first time i went to Blackpool, i went to a shopping center called Freeport. Here you can get 50% off on designers clothes. (I recommend those interested in shopping to visit this place) But this time around, i didn't go to Freeport, but instead i went to see some attractions and finally ending my day in pleasure beach. I arrived later than planned because i missed the first train and the second train was 20 minutes late. I didn't see much but nevertheless, i had a nice time. My first stop was "Sea World", i had the chance to see those colourfull fishes that you see in documentaries. I also saw some sharks, it was quite scary but we were well protected. After a lunch break at Burger King,(they have nice fries) i went to pleasure beach. I went on the pepsi ride, space invaders and i have forgotten the name of the last ride. I met this guy who was trying to make a new record on the Guiness Book of World Records. He had to go on the ride continously and only stopping for breaks. There was a long queue and when i got in, he had gone on the ride 3 times. I was screaming for my life but he kept on scribling on his notes as if nothing was going on. By the time i got off, i almosted vomitted but this guy went again. Good Luck to him as he sets a new world record.
I recommend anyone to Blackpool, but be careful with your wallets though.
