WEDNESDAY 11TH
- It was overcast when we set out
this morning and soon came into showers and misty rain. We called at Lytham St Anne’s Golf Club for a
quick look and then proceeded to get slightly lost, finishing up at
Blackpool. This was not the road we
wanted to take at all however the drive through the streets was fascinating to
say the least. There must be a couple of
miles of amusement places all the way along the shore line. It is all pretty ghastly and not somewhere I
will yearn to go back to,
We finally found our way to the road we wanted. Ian was keen to go to St Bees which is where
the coast to coast walk starts on the west coast. Not that he is planning to do the walk, he just
wanted to see the place. We stopped at a
little place, Crook, for lunch in a country pub and then through to Ravenglass
where there is another steam train ride.
After checking the timetable decided to leave it till tomorrow in the
hope that the weather will be better. St
Bees didn’t do much for us either so we backtracked and came to Seascale and
found a B & B opposite the beach. It
is really misty with low cloud so not much to see.

| It really was miserable when we arrived at Seascale. This is the view from our room. I'm sure it is great on a nice sunny evening but tonight you almost can't see the horizon. |
Yeah, it might be miserable, but your image gives me a real feel for the place. An image about the place as opposed to an image of the place.
