This past weekend we decided to head down to Brighton for a few days to enjoy a long weekend away as well as check out the area as a potential destination for relocation.

On Thursday we left mid morning and drove down south and checked into our AirBnB early afternoon. We were very central, but it was super quiet due to lockdown which worked out quiet well for us. Once unpacked we walked down to the beach for sunset then back to the apartment for the evening.

On Friday we did a good bit of driving around, from Brighton through Hove and Portslade and out through to Worthing where we stopped up and walked out along the pier. After sometime along the pier in the wind, it was back in the car to King Alfred car park and a nice walk along the beach front there before heading back to the accommodation.

Yesterday was Ellen's birthday which we celebrated in the morning in the apartment with a fry up for breakfast and some presents, then a walk down to the beach and back in the afternoon for some birthday cake. Afterwards we took a drive around the neighbouring areas of Hove and Portslade to get a feel for the areas before heading back to the apartment for the evening.

This morning, after quickly packing up, we headed down to Brighton beachfront for a walk along there, followed by Five Guys for lunch and then the drive back home.

Was a good weekend away and think Ellen enjoyed her birthday and the couple of days away from home :)
