Scarborough

So today doing something as family apart from dad who's working, Sharon and Eliie arrived just before 9 am. Luckily it was nice day so decided to go to Scarborough our British seaside and whenever I think of British seaside Scarborough is the one that offers me the most memories. Scarborough is a town on the North Sea coast of North Yorkshire, England, within the borough of the same name. The most striking feature of the town's geography is a high rocky promontory pointing eastward into the north sea. Normally in car journeys Ellie's falls asleep for some reason wasn't that bothered going to sleep must off been that interested in aunty Jo so trust her to fall asleep 10 minutes before got there. As soon as got there we went for walk along the east pier where got a good view off the beachfront with lots of boats. British seaside is slightly different to Australian beach as when I think of British seaside I always imagine Ice creams, saucy postcards, fish 'n' chips, rock, donkey rides and deckchairs. Whilst Australia has some of the best beaches with huge coastlines and Bondi is known for lifesavers, surfers and sun worshippers. But one thing that both Scarborough and Sydney have in common is that their both have a Luna park. Scarborough's luna park is a mini theme park with Ferris Wheel, rides and Dodgems situated on Scarborough Harbour beside the East (outer) Pier. It was then to go on the beach and it was the first time Ellie been on a beach which she seemed to like and at least didn't try to eat the sand. Me and Sharon took her for a walk into the sea which was cold but didn't seem to bother Ellie as she sat in it. It was then time for fish 'n' chips and went to 'Winking Willy's' which is supposedly known for good fish and chips. But Sharon was abit disappointed as chips pale and skin on the fish but still tasted good and Ellie definitely liked the chips and supposedly first time had. Then had a wander into town where there isn't many shops but still managed to lose Sharon and Eliie but soon found her and got work a present some rock. We then went for our lemon top ice-cream which is like lemon sorbet on top of whippy ice-cream very nice and Ellie not bothered about it. Had another wander down the harbour shops and Ellie had time to practice her walking and liked the arcades and went in the moving boat. Didn't end up getting home til 6.30 and was supposed to go for a run but it never happened instead I ended up falling asleep with cat and got to bed at 1.
