Today we went to the Sealife Center Manchester. It's only recently opened and it's been a while since I've been to an aquarium. Now that I know a lot more about fish it's far more interesting; I'd love to be an animal keeper there!! The best thing we saw was probably the huge sea turtle that they have in their main tank. I've never seen one before and he was beautiful! The enclosures were all really nice and they had a good range of fish and sea creatures. We had a behind the scenes tour with a member of staff called Phil. He was really great and told us lots of interesting information. We also got to see a snake necked turtle which was in isolation as he was being naughty and trying to breed with another species of turtle whilst upsetting her male partner!

Today was the boy's birthday. We went to Blackpool for the day. First we had a litle walk around Stanley Park, we were going to go on the boats but we'd forgotten to take any cash or change so just had to make do with looking at the lake instead! We then went to the Sealife Center which was good, my favourite was obviously the sharks! We then played pirate mini golf and then had fish and chips for dinner. We played in the arcades for a while and won enough tickets for a For Me To You tea towel, apron and oven glove set! Woop! I took lots of pictures on my Mini Diana so that's why today's PED is a little dull considering we've had a day out! I will upload those as soon as I've finished the roll! I'm not super tired again and dreading going back to work for the continuation of mega week. Boo!
