Oh, hello darlings! It's Emma here, back from a whirlwind trip to Crosby, and let me tell you, it was absolutely splendid! This little seaside town nestled on the coast of Merseyside, with its charming promenade and Victorian architecture, has completely stolen my heart! 💕
As soon as I stepped off the train (a very picturesque journey, I might add! 😉) and felt that cool sea breeze, I knew this trip was going to be special.
For this adventure, I donned my most vibrant cyan tutu - I mean, how could I resist? The colour just popped against the blue sky and sparkling ocean! 🌊 It's been a while since I wore such a bold colour, and let me tell you, it was a joy to twirl in. My trusty ballet shoes were ready for a jaunt along the beach, too!
Now, you all know my love for a good ballet performance - and Crosby delivered! I managed to catch a performance at the charming little Crosby Theatre, tucked away in a quiet side street. The ballet company was local, and they performed a beautiful, enchanting piece that transported me straight to a whimsical fairytale. It was so good, I almost let out a gasp of surprise! 🩰
But it wasn't just about ballet this trip, darling. I found myself completely drawn to the seaside life. Walking along the promenade, feeling the sand squish beneath my feet, and watching the waves crashing against the shore - it was just pure bliss! It felt like a scene out of a romantic film.
Then there was the wildlife! The coastal walk was bursting with life - playful gulls soaring overhead, seals basking in the sun on a rocky outcrop, and even a cheeky squirrel dashing about in the nearby park. The natural beauty of Crosby was just breathtaking. 😍
In fact, it reminded me of Derbyshire! I do miss home, but Crosby managed to steal a piece of my heart with its peaceful seaside charm. It felt like stepping back in time, in the best possible way.
Speaking of home, you can imagine my surprise when I bumped into a fellow pink tutu enthusiast in the most unexpected place – the Crosby Heritage Trust! Imagine my delight when I realised this sweet, friendly soul had stumbled upon my blog! Turns out she was also a passionate ballet dancer and loved travelling by train, just like me. We even chatted about the latest ballet street dance moves, and let me tell you, she had some impressive tricks up her sleeve! 🤩
Honestly, this trip was so refreshing! I highly recommend it if you need a little getaway from the city, a dose of coastal charm, and an extra twirl of happiness in your life!
Before I leave you to plan your own little adventure to Crosby, a few thoughts about our beloved tutus! Let's be honest, wearing a pink tutu, in all its glory, is an adventure in itself! It takes confidence and a certain ‘je ne sais quoi' to rock it on the streets, and it always garners a smile (or two!) from onlookers.
Remember, wearing a tutu isn't just about the fashion - it's about expressing your individuality, your joy, and your inner ballerina! 💖 We can inspire a new wave of tutu-wearing loveliness and remind people of the beauty of ballet, even if it's just on a street corner, at a local cafe, or in the midst of a peaceful seaside walk. 😉
Until next time, darlings! Keep those tutus twirling! 💃
Emma xx
