We were staying in Southampton at my friends university house, however on the Saturday we all got up bright and early and drove across to Brighton, non of us had ever been before so this added to our excitement.
Once there we pretty much did everything we had planned. We had tea and scones at a really cute little tea rooms in The Lanes that was full of old fashioned seaside posters and the most delicious array of cakes. Once we were suitably full we spent the morning looking in quirky shops and just taking in the buzz of Brighton its self.
Whilst exploring we came across a large second hand shop full of one of a kind retro pieces and old fashioned furniture. We all had fun trying on hats and fur coats, but we had the most fun in a photo booth we found tucked away in a corner. This photo is my favourite thing that I took away from the weekend as I will keep this forever.
After we were well and truly shopped out we made our way onto Brighton Pier, where I won a giant elephant, as I never win anything I was rather proud of it and insisted on carrying this round with me for the rest of the day. This was fine however it's trunk kept nudging people in the back so I spent a lot of the afternoon apologising to people on it's behalf.
We spent ages walking around deciding what we should have for lunch but settled on fish and chips, nothing beats them when by the sea however you do suddenly become very aware of the seagulls when you have food in your hands.
I just wanted to share a few more pictures from this day as I honestly had so much fun and am already planning when I can go back.
