Formby Beach, Liverpool

It has been pretty good weather recently, despite some thunder storms, so my friends and I decided to book tickets to go to Liverpool to visit Formby. I'd been there before with my family a while ago so I knew it was such a nice town with a beach that was usually packed on a hot summers day. We got the train, and because we had to book the tickets in advance, we had to guess which day had the best weather, let's just say that we picked the wrong day. It was chucking it down in the morning in Manchester and all whilst we were on the train and in Formby (despite BBC weather saying the complete opposite a week ago..) Nevertheless we still got into our bikinis and went in the sea, which we had all to ourselves. It was absolutely freezing and we probably looked like complete weirdos, but it was soo funny! We actually stayed in the sea for quite a while despite the awful weather, we only got out when we saw a load of jellyfishes! After we dried ourselves off we walked back to the train station and got the train back to Liverpool Central where we had a little wander around all the shops and had something to eat. Then after a bit we got the train back home. Although it wasn't quite the day we thought it would be, it still turned out pretty fun and I had a good time!

What have you been up to recently?
