Gary and Carolyn arrived at
about 12 noon, quick cup of tea and out on the town. We sampled some of
the local hostilities both in the nice side of town and the not so nice part of
town but all an experience and very different to mid-week. They are not
wrong when they say Liverpool is the stag and hen party capital! People
watching has never been so interesting!
We found a great Tapas bar for lunch and an Argentinian steakhouse for dinner!

A trip to Liverpool is not complete without taking a ferry
across the Mersey but as Steve and I had already done this Gary and Carolyn
went off for their cruise on Sunday. Unfortunately
it poured with rain but they had good fun - thank goodness they had their pac-a-macs and a brolly!
A quick bite of lunch on board and out for a walk…in the
rain. It did stop but had kept lots of
people away from the dock area so we took a ride on the wheel – amazing views
from the top. Once back on the ground we
walked along the front and stopped for a glass or two overlooking the Mersey
with the Liver Building as a backdrop – the sun even came out!
We had dinner in Smugglers Cove in Albert Dock then back for
an early night as we have to be ready to leave at 7.45am.
