Summerville Guest House Blackpool

Last brief entry, just to say we are safely back home, arriving yesterday with Sue picking us up at Manchester airport.<br><br>We've had a fantastic trip - very memorable! Thank you for following our trip. Hope it hasn't been boring, certainly hasn't for us.

... to see if I could locate her bag and stuff... and once we found it (thankfully!) we discovered that her camera was missing.. and still is missing (along with the shoe...). We hoped to discover who this camera-shoe-werido thief was, but since Jess can't remember what happened (apparently she even got into a fight!), there is a possibility she left it somewhere herself, or donated it to a homeless person even (one nice black high heel shoe can be counted as ...

... stuff is planned.<br><br>Now we are starting to get an idea of which are the 'must not be missed' places along the way - we can't possibly see everywhere and experience everything but shortlisting is going to be tricky!<br> The current plan is....<br> India - Sri Lanka - Singapore - Australia - New Zealand - Fiji - Argentina - Uruguay<br> Can't wait!<br>

We headed back into Liverpool today and to an enormous park. It is called Sefton Park. In Sefton Park there is a boating lake, a Victorian glass house (The Palm House), a bronzed statue of Peter Pan, a ...

... so-to-speak. <br><br>We found it hard to get our head around the way Wigan was so much "into" Halloween. Everywhere we went there were fake skulls and skeletons, witches 'hair' and scary things hanging up. At our restaurant when the waiter came up to us, I nearly fell off my chair. I had to say to him, "I'm sorry, I'm finding it hard to get past all the (fake) blood over your face and white shirt to make an order!!" His face ...

... flirty for coppers! A very funny experience. Actually the whole night could be summed up as one of the funnest nights i've ever had out.. Zoe was amazing to go out with, so so funny...and her two friends who came along were the bubbly, fun, carefree sort of people that make nights out with alcohol seem so much more colourful. <br> Having gone through about 5 or 6 pubs/bars/clubs, we finally made our way home after 2 (??? i think???) and i stumbled into ...

... that Hersey's chocolate!". I personally have to agree, having become quite the connoisseur of Cadbury's (I bought a block last night that was filled with chocolate fudge). <br><br>My next main point of weekly excitement came on Wednesday night when we went down to hang out with our friends downstairs. They were all too excited when they saw that those plastic cups from American party movies really do exist. Unfortunately, long tables are themselves also nonexistent in ...

... short (though some of you may know them...<br>maybe). To start off there is no dribbling and if you are passed the ball<br>you can only hold it for 3 seconds. Another part of this is that you must<br>keep the foot you had on the ground when you caught the ball, on the ground. <br>You may move the other foot in any direction. There are also ...

... middle of bathrooms. Oh and readjusting to how everything is backwards, and not just the driving, the light switches, the windows, and even the zipper on my new pair of jeans. I also had to learn the whole idea of coin money right quick as they do rip off any one with an American accent. On man handed me a copper coin claiming it was 5 pence ( I don't think he realized that even though are money is different the values are still made with the same metal Copper ...

... in a traditionally working class city, a club that has suffered the tragedies of deaths of its supporters through stadium overcrowding, an icon saddled with a bandwagon full of fans the world over who&#8217;ve never set foot inside their home ground &#8211; let alone the city. When Liverpool won the 1984 European Cup an easily influenced six year old boy living far, far away who had just started playing the sport jumped on that crowded ...
