Exploring the Yorkshire East Coast Day 2: Bridlington

in #travelfeed5 years ago

Sometimes it truly is a "World of Pure Imagination" That's what I learnt when I went to John Bull's Chocolate/Rock Factory in the seaside town of Bridlington.

If you don't know what Rock is, it's basically a sweet that is common in European countries. Mainly the United Kingdom and Ireland

So I started my day from the caravan to around 30 mins to get to John Bull's Rock and Chocolate factory. There I learnt the process of making Rock and actually learned how to make my own Rock!

It was a very fun experience, While there we also learned a bit of the history of the rock factory including the fact it's been around since the early 1900s! It was also created by someone called "John Bull" (It's in the name duh).

There we also a few other interesting things we learnt including making our own chocolate bars! While learning about the history we watched a video in a dark room on a projector which was actually very interesting

After that we were finished with the chocolate factory and decided to look in the gift shop for a bit of which we didn't find much. After the gift shop we went for dinner to Sizzling Pubs again and for tea we had Fish and ships then we went to our caravan with a normal night of playing on the arcades and the Funworks

I used to love going up to the east coast and getting some rock! You wouldn't need to get it anywhere else. Hands down, the best rock around! Glad you had a great day out and hope you burned off all that sugar :)
