I love Scarborough, I’ve been loads of times before
when I was little and not much had changed since the last time I’d been, maybe
eight years ago. (Except they’ve changed the swans to dragons at Peasholm
Park.) I went on the day that Boro got promoted to the Premier League
last week; my boyfriend supports them and they’re technically my
home team, so I was hoping they would win.
Places to visit in Scarborough:
Peasholm Park
Peasholm Park is a park in the middle of Scarborough near to the seafront. It has a lake where you can go around on a pedalo
North Bay Railway
The railway station is across the road from Peasholm Park; you can get the miniature train to the North Bay and back again through a tunnel that used to terrify me when I was little, even though it’s actually tiny! At the other end, there’s mini golf (which we didn’t play because it was too windy) and the beach. It was freezing so we got the train back and headed for the arcades.
The Arcades and Harbour
We had fish and chips in a café on the sea front and had a quick walk around the harbour. They had a Ferris wheel and other rides set out along the path. There are so many different arcades along the sea front; we went in quite a few and I ended up losing most of our 2ps. I even got turned away from one because they said that I needed my ID to play the roulette wheel, apparently!
