This week’s photo challenge is perfect for me.
For many years, when I was working seasons, I didn’t have an off-season. I would go wherever the people and the work were. However, I would still experience the off-season in my hometown of Blackpool when I returned to visit.
Due to the Illuminations, we have an unusually long season in Blackpool. Once the tourists do leave, the locals come out to play (albeit it in extra layers to keep warm). If you look closely, you can see snow on the fells in the background of this shot.

Great photo! The tourist season in Southern California is my least favorite. It’s difficult to find parking and the beaches are always more crowded.
Thanks Lesley! I know what you mean, the prices always seem to go up during tourist season as well 🙂
