On Thursday after of the 26th September I went down to visit my parents in Eastbourne for a long weekend. It was a beautiful weekend with gorgeous sunshine and blue sea and sky. On friday 27th september, I went to the town centre with my mother and had a hot chocolate in T J Hughes and had a wonderful chinese meal at Mr. Hau’s, and I visited some of the shops including a rock shop(sweets).
And in the evening I chilled out and went around the harbour for a walk.

On Saturday 28th September, I went to the crumbles shopping centre in sovereign harbour, Eastbourne, where I saw JJB Sports, Next, Cineworld cinema, Harvester restaurant and many other shops, bars and restaurants, including a large ASDA store. I had a nice sandwich lunch at home and later in the afternoon, we went to the entrance to the harbour, where I saw loads of boats, speedboats, yachts and speedbikes. Some were getting ready to be involved in a race and others were just sailing for fun. Plus we saw a club of yachts. It was amazing and alot of people were there watching to. That evening I had a lovely currey cooked by my mother. And again I chilled out around the harbour.

On Sunday 29th I went for a walk back up to the harbour in the morning having a look at the harbour, sea and where the new houses are being made and are already made. It is so beautiful down there my parents are very lucky living their. That lunch time we had fish and chips which was lovely and earlier that morning I had a mr whippy ice-cream cornet. I really enjoyed my stay there and am looking forward to visit again soon. Oh and before I go I would like you to watch this 10 minute video on Eastbourne’s Airshow that comes around once every year with professional pilot’s from around the world putting on an amazig display enjoy, this video was taken off Youtube, thanks.
