Day 5 - Cardiff to Blackpool
In the morning, we set out to go to Blackpool - our midstop before we would be back in Dunfermline. We chose to go via the A49 instead of heading to the M6 - mostly because we knew from the way down that south of Manchester was road works about every 20 mins and in a lot of places we'd been forced down to 40 mph - sometimes less and a few times full stop. So we decided to avoid the motorway up until south of Preston - then we headed onto it and then off toward Blackpool.
Blackpool... was... a bit kitchy - the permanent lights were REALLY kitchy XD - the Christmas lights were okay, nothing extreme light sleigh-riding Santas. They make me want to barf.
