Hello everyone and welcome back to our blog! It's Jade & Lydia here. Today we are going to talk about our trip to Brighton. On the 11th May, we both went to Brighton for a few days. We also stayed at Eastbourne. We have both been so excited to visit Brighton. Lydia had been before but it was Jade's first time in Brighton. We decided to be proper tourists and visit all the places that people rave about. Warning there are many photos in this blog post.
When we arrived and checked into our hotel we both decided to explore the beautiful seaside town. We had both heard a lot about the Lanes so we got up our trusted google maps on our phones and followed the directions. Can we just say without google maps on our phones we would have been lost multiple times. We didn't realise how much we relied on that app until we looked back onto the trip.
We absolutely loved all the unique and quriky shops. We also stopped off at a little cafe and had a red velvet cake each and an oreo milkshake. That milkshake was one of the best milkshakes we had ever tasted! After our trip down the lanes, we decided to take a visit to the Brighton Pavillion. We walked around the gardens and admired the stunning architecture.
After the Pavillion, we wondered down to the beach to have a look at the piers. We did plan on going to the big Brighton pier, however, it was boiling and walking across a pebble beach took our energy away. So we sat on the beach for a "10-minute" break which turned into 45-minute break. However, it was so calming and relaxing to just sit by the sea and take in the beautiful scenery.
Sitting on the beach seemed a perfect opportunity to take some flat lays of the photo booth pictures that we took in a little shop down the lanes. Some of the pictures we took were funny. Our faces.
After our time on the beach, we visited the west pier and took a few photos. After that, we were desperate to have a shower so we freshened up and headed out for dinner.
So In the morning, we went for a stroll down the pier. Funny story Jade had her camera with her and took off her lens cap and accidentally dropped it and on the pier, the "floor" is wooden planks with gaps in between them showing the sea. The gaps are tiny like really tiny and could literally fit a lens cap through it. The lens cap hit the gap and bounced off and fell flat on the wooden plan. Luck was well on our side!
We also went and watched the I360 go up, quite amazing really.
We then went around the other part of the lanes and went into Choccywoccydoodah. It was quite expensive but Jade bought a white chocolate rice crispy vanilla fudge chocolate bar and some toffee chocolate bites for her Mum. Lydia bought a triple layer chocolate bar, toffee pieces and chocolate buttons for her parents.
We then decided to treat ourselves more by getting some ice cream. We popped into Boho Gelato. Jade had raspberry and elderflower gelato and Lydia had salted caramel gelato. Both were really nice and we could eat them again and again. Sadly we don't live in Brighton, so we can't.
We then went to 42 juices and we both got a healthy green juice and ginger shot each. All we can say was having our first ginger shot was an experience that we will never experience again. It was absolutely horrible. Burned our throat.
Then we finished the morning off by going to Bills where we had a full English breakfast. We then went shopping in the town and Lydia tried her first bubble tea. We also bought Dum Dum Doughnuts but we spoke about them in our previous blog post. If you would like to read more about them the click here
So that is it. Thank you for reading this blog post hope you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed the trip away. We also stayed in Eastbourne the night after but didn't take many pictures. We mainly re-lived the Angus Thongs And The Perfect Snogging scenes.
