Finally Getting There!

Anything you buy will be in the sale next week - Erma Bombeck
Welcome to my Tuesday in Blackpool 🚋
Nice hug with brew.
Dressed.
Nice cooked breakfast to start the day with.
We are visiting Fleetwood to look around their market and get some bargains!
While we were waiting for a tram, a vintage tram went past us.
The next two trams for FULL for Fleetwood.
So we caught the tram on the otherside to Starr Cross instead, then go to Fleetwood from there.
We saw another vintage tram....
We finally got to Fleetwood!
We get some bargains from in there.
Then we go for a coffee at a nearby coffee/ bookshop.
Then it's time to look around Fleetwood!
 
We get back on the tram,
Wearing our face masks.
 
We go to Lidl to buy our evening meal.
Look what they have got in there...
Gets what we need...
Back on the tram...
Tea is served!
Back to the room to catch up with today's newspaper.
