Brighton – a city with a Royal Palace
Two more working days and I will be on vacation. Wednesday my kids are still going to school and daycare so that I can take advantage of the day to do a few things at home, Thursday they will stay with me while dad will be working 3 more days.
Once again we won’t be going anywhere, we will be staying at home, use the pool a lot and go to the beach.
We might have the visit of some dutch friends that are coming to Portugal for their vacation, they intend to go south so we don’t know yet if we are going to be able to get together.
These dutch friends travel a lot, last year they were in south of France for two weeks and early this year they were in Brighton, a city they want to visit again. They told us Brighton is an excellent city to spend a few days visiting, there are several attractions that please grown ups and children.
Near the coast line, Brighton has a Royal Palace, museums, giant sculptures, street artists, surf stores, well known clothes brand stores, theaters, music, beaches and much more. For accommodation there are condos and hotels some of five start and the 400 restaurants bring us all types of food.
My friends told me about so many Brighton qualities that I felt I needed to look for more information. WeLoveLocal.com is a site where we can find reviews and recommendations for several places and attractions we can visit in Brighton.
The real cool feature about this site is that you always have a Google Map on the right side showing the places you are selecting. For instance you want to go to the Riley Snooker Club, you search it on the site and when you click on the link to see the information available for that snooker club immediately the Google Map appears showing the exact location of the club, the streets around it, etc.. This is great when we don’t know the exact location and directions to take, with the map we are able to check the streets we have to take to get there.
The WeLoveLocal.com has a Brighton Directory featuring local business listings. This is also very useful for instance to check where a car parking or a cinema is. All location are featured on the Google Map.
My friends are really impressed with the city, who knows I will be able to visit it someday.
