Red House Horse and Carriage Museum

This morning I got up not to early but not to late because my dad and I were going for a trip out. Because my Dad couldn't come to my riding lesson last weekend he said that we would go out for a morning. So we went to a Carriage and Horse museum that I've always wanted to go to! I loved it, everything was so well looked after. There tackroom was sparkling everything was shiny!!! It sparkles when you looked in the leather I swear you could see your reflection! They had carriages that were used in the coronation in 1953, an old ice cream cart! The horses and carts that were used in the film Pride and Prejudice. It was great! The horses were stunning and I really enjoyed it. Then we went for a drive around and drove through Chatsworth and saw some gorgeous baby deers. Then we just drove steadily home.  I haven't really done a lot today but I still feel quite tired. I haven't been able to talk alot because there is a bug going around at the minute and I think that I h...

A day out with my mum

Well my mum and I didn't get to do what we planned to do. Months ago in a horse and rider magazine I saw an advert for Cavendish Horses at Bolsover Castle, when I saw it I said I wanted to go but I forgot about it until today. My mum agreed that she'd take me and we got there for them to tell us that they had sold out of tickets for the day, but we could still go look at the castle if we wanted to. I said no thanks because old buildings don't interest me. So instead we went to Mcdonalds to get something to eat as neither of us had anything all day and when we had done there we went to go to Chatsworth house with the intention that we would see all the deer out grazing but when we got there they were across the other side of the river and couldn't be seen anywhere. So mum surprised me by taking me to the Horse and Carriage Museum in Darley Dale, we got there one minute after they had closed. So instead I spent time taking pictures of the horses out in the field. It ...

Blackpool post - pictures included

This morning I got a lie in after my early morning and late night yesterday. The journey to Blackpool was longer than I thought that it was going to be, I thought I'd be able to fall asleep on the way there but there was no such luck!  When we got there we had a look in the hotel that Hannah (my brother's Girlfriend) was staying at, it was nice and small and a had a great view of the sea it was lovely. When we'd had a look we started making the walk to the other end of the promenade towards were the fairs were and Pleasure Beach. We got up to the Blackpool Tower, originally I said that I wasn't going to go all the way to the top because I'm one of those people that just do not like heights. However I did go to the top and I'm glad I did as the view was lovely, it was all enclosed so it didn't bother me too much, except at one point where there was a glass floor that you could stand on my mum and I didn't like the look of it but my brother did and so...
