We used to go to Scarborough sometimes too but, obviously, not as often as the places I've mentioned. The amusement arcades were probably the highlight of my outings back then as well. Whitby, as far as I remember, never had any amusements and I recall being bored whenever we went. Perhaps that influenced my decision not to go there today.
Amusements were my favourite part of my trips to Redcar.
I can imagine you being bored as a nipper in Whitby as there is nothing really exciting in Whitby for children I think, I think there is very little amusements in Whitby and I may even be imagining these. If my parents took me there I would probably found it a bit boring although I may not have as I quite liked being out and about, even enjoyed going to places like Ikea when I was a kid, although I don't enjoy going to Ikea so much now. This ambition to explore places in the UK is probably part of the reason why I like this hobby so much and quite like going new places, looking forward to my Moorsbus outing next month.
