To Blackpool, we hoped on Northern Line Rail train. You need to pay attention to which coach you are in. The train may split into half at certain stops and you might be going to a wrong destination (penalty will be imposed if you are holding the wrong ticket).
The weather was absolutely amazing as we arrived. The sky was blue with white patches of cloud. Ala-ala sepoi bahasa yg sgt best. In the northern part of UK, this kind of weather is very rare. We got lost at first caused we couldn't see the Blackpool tower, so it effects our sense of direction. Once we got sight of the tower, we are walking towards it, with a little help of the ocean. Wasn't something Im expecting. Tapi ok lah, its been quite a while since I last went to the beach.The water was so damn cold and ppl are swimming in it, definitely not for me.
Ku sangka panas ke ptg, rupanya hujan di tengahari... The lovely weather turn into a vary dark cloud in few minutes. Both of us was running for shelter. We stopped by in front of Louis Tussaud's Waxworks. Got ourselves a buy 1 free 1 ticket and happily walk in. The building was separated into a few levels. Get confused between a human and a wax figurine. Took plenty of photos.
To name a few : Sir Elton John, Johnny Depp, Eric Cantona, Robbie Williams & Beckham. There is also a basement section with all the creepy character such as Freddy Nightmare, Bram Dracula, Emily Rose (that room was really scary. I hate it very much). It was late around 5pm when we walked out from there and it is still yet outside.
Had our dinner and walked to the train station. Unfortunately, the jinx continued. Our train was delayed to almost 2hour! By the time we reached Manchester Piccadilly Station it was almost 2230 and we missed our last bus ride. The only option is to take the tram towards Eccles and walked home (which is about 20-minutes walk) Took the tram, stopped at deserted pekan Eccles. Only arm with payung & pepper spray, we brave ourself to walk home. I was praying to Allah & Ivy was praying to her God...
Luckily we got home safe (we actually run home) We stumbled upon a drunk guy whose saying his address out loud and he was asking us to help send him home. Obviously he was very drunk to notice that none of us are locals.
