Brighton, England

 


Bright Times In Brighton
A fun day out to the ocean with friends from Wigram

Brighton is definitely a place to see in England. Its a city with a special charm that even on a bad cloudy miserable day you'll be happy to have visited. Christian, Rie, Richard, Johannes, Emily, Chris, Flore and I spent the day having a 'good ole time'. The Brighton pier supports a huge amusement center with some fun rides above the ocean. The city reminded me of Benny Hill & other old English television shows; but of coarse, the Beatles with its hip hippy vintage store appeal. Surprisingly,Brighton holds the largest gay club in UK and probably all of Europe. It's a free expression feel kind of city with its 70's style hippies and laid back atmosphere. The music played at the fair was house music, and I am starting to understand how dance music is an instrumental part of the complete UK culture. Along with this taste of music, there is a great nightlife 'right-on' the boardwalk, a nightlife you cant find anywhere else with local Fat Boy Slim poppin in to spin at the clubs every then and now..

Brighton is just another cool liberated town in England with just a pure rock' hip' 70's open English cultural environment. Click on the "Brighton" link above to see the pictures or scroll down.

"hey mom and dad..."
Christian takes time to call home.
"Quack Quack"

"Florence is not here"

Rie pointing at her last name Suzuki on the kiddie rides we couldn't ride.

Even on a cold day as this one,
these kids want to get wet..

Richard and Emily
spinning on the rides.
"whoooooooooooah"
"oooooooooah"

The ride starts speeding up
and we feel like throwing up.
You never know what you
will catch in Brighton.

Me humping poles again.

fun in the cool vintage shop.
Vintage at its best or worst?

The Royal Pavilion, an Indian feel on the outside but a Chinese brothel in.


The abandoned West Pier and its
permanent flock of birds who live there.


Hidden Sunsets.
A great way to end the day.
