Liverpool explorers

Hi lovelies,

We had such fun today.

Up early and we got a taxi into West Kirby to catch a train into Liverpool.

It was a chilly morning, but with the promise of a fine day we were excited to head into town.

When we arrived we were a little early for our first planned trip, so we had a quick wander around. The buildings in Liverpool are amazing, and huge.

Took the obligatory snap with the Fab 4.

We had tickets to catch the “ferry across the Mersey”. They actually play the song on the trip. 😊. Made us both smile.

We got off at one of the stops and went to see the U-Boat display. This was really interesting. The sub has been cut into segments so you can see inside and get a sense of the size.

We then returned to the ferry and returned to the city side of the river. We hopped on the On/Off bus and headed towards the museum district.

The Library was amazing. I loved the spiral staircase that was in the centre of the building, and I could happily move into the Picton Reading Room.

Lots of floors

From there we headed to the World History Museum to see the Egyptian display. Another amazing exhibit to see.

We were both treated to sights we had not seen before, and it was really cool.

It was then back on the bus and we were chauffeured back to the ferry terminal. It is the first time either of us have done an On/Off bus tour and it was great. You get lots of history and interesting facts.

It was a wonderful day, and it did stay fine, right up until we got off the train.

All for tonight.

Stay safe and keep enjoying life.

Love us.
