Brighton

Holiday again!

Brooks, Jackson and I drove down to Brighton yesterday for another little mini holiday. We were staying right on the seafront and although the hotel was pretty basic, (Travelodge), it was very comfy and clean.

I LOVE Brighton. I really do! It's funny though how much it makes me think of a sort of "Camden by the sea". It's very arty and relaxed but there are also more posher bits, like say Richmond, Chiswick or even Ricky... I would absolutely love to live here. We even looked at house prices and we could possibly afford a nice house...
And it's not that far to London either, only about an hour by car! I think trains would be expensive though which is a minus as Brooks has to commute.

Today was gorgeous, sunny and warm! We strolled down the beach front and went down the Pier. It was so lovely. We walked around and have coffees and watched the world go by... Bliss!

We went down the Lanes and we saw some amazing baby shops... Brighton is full of preggers and yummy mummies and the shops are there to tempt them all! (And me!) I bought some lovely things for Jackson new room - it's going to look great when it's all done! We also got him a shirt from Baby Gap, they had a sale on and I just couldn't resist!

Speaking of buying stuff - The ELC had a sale on this weekend and we bought some brilliant stuff for Jackson! We got him a sun tent/sandpit, a wooden walker and a pool for the garden. Amazing! I'm so pleased! Such a shame that they closing down although apparantly they'll keep their stuff at Mothercare...

Anyhooo... Brooks is back at work tomorrow so back to normal for Jackson and I!
