Brighton!

We've spent the last couple of days in beautiful Brighton... where they seem to have ample amounts of land sharks all around the city... some in front of restaurants... some in front of convenience stores... and this one was on Brighton Pier which I narrowly escaped... land sharks are fast and unpredictable.
Instead of playing slot machines on the pier we chose air hockey... how Canadian of us... this picture was taken after Ashley won... I won the first game... just saying.
Then off to yet another pub where Ashley showed her skills with the fish eye lens...
If you every travel to Brighton... there is one thing you must avoid... it's called Extreme Flame... no matter how much you've had to drink... NEVER enter the Flame... you will live to regret it for days... and maybe months to come!
This was there poor excuse for a veggie burger... *shudder*...
What is a trip to England without stopping at Primark... or "Primani" as the locals call it... which is Primark crossed with Armani... and everyone who shops there has a screaming child... except us... they must have missed that on the way in.
The Royal Pavilion was beautiful... this was King George IV seaside home... he loved everything chinese themed it seemed... there was a giant chinese bobblehead on the way in... probably the first bobblehead... way to go George!
Everyone knows teenage pregnancy is rampant in England... but this is crazy!
Tank Girl!
Ashley bought a pair of shoes at Irregular Choice... they have stacking dolls on them... I was next door drinking a coffee where a 60 year old lady was showing off her new tattoo to her friend... problem was... it was on her lady bits and I saw as well... if I could take out my brain and was it with soap and warm water... I would.
This is a picture of the West Pier which was destroyer by fire a few years earlier...
Our hotel elevator was scary... and would stop between floors... we preferred the stairs... except after the pub... then we would put a brave face on and enter "the box of death".
Note to Mom: Our plane arrives at 3:15pm... so if I get kicked off the plane you'll know by 8:20am Toronto time... if you don't hear from us... we're on the plane.
