Hello my darlings! It's Emma here, your pink tutu-clad friend, and today, I'm whisking you away on a journey to the white cliffs of Dover. It's blog post number 8991, so do stick around! Today's adventure is all about fairy wings and pink tutus, a quintessential combo if ever I've seen one!
Now, before I tell you about my day in this iconic British town, I have to show off my magnificent new tutu! It's pink, naturally, and boasts the most intricate, delicate little fairy wings you ever did see. It's pure magic! I'm convinced the fairies themselves sprinkled a bit of sparkle onto the fabric! ✨
We travelled by train to Dover, and as always, the journey was filled with beautiful scenery. I simply adore train travel, especially the quaint little carriage compartments. And as we zoomed past the rolling green hills of Kent, I couldn't help but envision a ballet performance set amidst the bucolic English countryside! A little ballerina frolicking among the fields of wildflowers, perfectly embodying the spirit of this romantic region.
Dover, I've found, is a town brimming with history. I started my day at Dover Castle, a true marvel that felt as though it stepped right out of a history book! The dramatic white cliffs and the imposing castle made a perfect backdrop for a little impromptu photoshoot. I twirled and pirouetted around the courtyard, my pink tutu catching the wind like a graceful pink ribbon. (Sorry for all the twirls and pics, I know, I know - a little dramatic even for me! 😅)
But Dover has more than just castles, it also has charming shops! As we strolled along the cobbled streets, I was captivated by the unique boutiques and antique stores. It felt as though time had slowed down. I even managed to find a vintage ballet book with a beautiful ballerina illustrated on the front cover. It was a delightful treasure to add to my collection.
And, for all you fellow animal lovers out there, we even saw some adorable little donkeys at the nearby port! These little fluffballs were simply the cutest, and they provided some hilarious entertainment with their funny, bumbling antics. I swear, one little donkey even looked at me with this goofy expression, as if he knew I was there to admire him! (If donkeys could speak, they'd say 'Pink tutu, fabulous!')
It's been a magical day exploring Dover, and I'm already longing to come back. And of course, no journey is complete without some dance therapy! We found this enchanting ballet studio on a quiet cobblestone street, tucked away amongst the quaint houses. They even had a gorgeous chandelier hanging from the ceiling and the aroma of lavender danced through the air! It was the perfect place for a class.
You guys know me, I just have to twirl and pirouette wherever I go, so it's not really surprising I was twirling in the streets of Dover. (A few curious glances and enthusiastic "well dones" from local shopkeepers and children. My little ballet interlude made everyone's day!). I even convinced my fellow travellers to try some ballet moves outside the castle, and thankfully no one twisted an ankle. Maybe we'll start our own "Dover Ballerinas" troupe one day. It wouldn't be hard to get them all in pink tutus, they all seemed keen to join!
Remember, I firmly believe that the world is a brighter and more magical place with a little more pink and a lot more twirling! Dover truly felt like a step out of a ballet performance, a charming mix of history, beauty and the perfect dose of whimsical magic.
So, until next time, my darlings! Keep your head held high, your hearts filled with grace and don't be afraid to twirl your way through life, no matter where you find yourself. You might just be the inspiration someone needs! 💖
Love and twirls,
Emma xoxo
