My Few Days In Essex

I travelled up to Essex last Friday to stay with my family like I have done every year since I can remember. I love it up there, I know the stereotype for Essex isn't really the great but trust me they aren't all like that. Plus, the scenery up here is beautiful.

These were taken on Friday when I arrived in London and my uncle had picked us up to take us to Essex and we drove through London. 

Saturday:

I went for a walk to Wat Tyler Park (think that's how it's spelt) with my auntie, uncle, cousins, my mum and their dogs for a walk. For some strange reason they had Alpacas there and for £10 I could've walked one. Sadly, they scare me and I thought £10 was a ridiculous price for an animal that could quite easily spit my face. 

Sunday:

We didn't really do much Sunday. Sunday was just a chill day. Although I did as you can see, I had fun watching Stan & Maisey (the dogs) playing. My auntie & uncle also cooked an amazing Lamb roast dinner and I found out I don't actually like lamb but the rest was great. 

Monday:

We went into Basildon shopping on Monday. We were actually really disappointed as there was hardly any nice things to buy so none of us spent a lot which can be considered as a good thing, I suppose. I did actually end up buying a few things though and we had a Starbucks at the end which was the highlight. 

Tuesday:

It was the day to travel home :( 

I hated leaving, I wanted to stay for a few more days. My uncle drove us into London to get our coach home and as per usual, London was so busy and there was traffic everywhere so I was able to take pictures while we were driving. 

(In case you didn't recognise it, that's the Tower Of London)

We arrived home later than planned and tired, a 6 hour coach journey isn't great. I love Essex and can't wait to travel back there soon.
