Blackpool illuminations

On Sunday my lovely friend had no plans so said why don't we do something that I'd struggle doing on my own with the monkeys - bet she wishes she'd never offered! I jumped at the chance to do something different from the norm so we headed off up the coast to see the illuminations. First stop Lytham for a walk along the front then fish and chips in a restaurant i found last year. Then we got back in the car and headed all the way up through the centre of Blackpool so the monkeys could see the sights just before it got dark. We stopped right at the top in Bispham and got ready for the lights to be switched on. Blue monkey came and sat in the front seat so he had a great view, we got pink monkey into her pjs and dressing gown - oh she looked so snug. Then we set off we had a supply of chocolate and on the request of pink monkey we put some music on. The monkeys loved it - I loved seeing them so happy - and I think L even enjoyed it as a one off!
