My goodness where has the time gone! Only 2 more weeks left in the term until I am done with my first graduate school term! A couple weeks ago in early November I took the train up to Northern England to Manchester to visit my friend from California, Thoai. I looked at the map and saw that Liverpool was fairly close so we decided to take a day trip there.The day started off pretty well...until we managed to get on the wrong train. To Blackpool. Since I already had my train back to Brighton booked, I had to make some adjustments to make sure that we would still be able to get to Liverpool and spend some time there. What is the fun if everything goes right?!
Liverpool. The Beatles. What a Beatles adventure it was! I love the Beatles and got to see where one of the largest groups of all time grew up and began their conquering of the world! Started off with a visit to the Beatles story - a museum dedicated to everything Beatles. So much to see there! Then, we had a booking for the Magical Mystery bus tour - taking us around to the places where John, Ringo, Paul and George grew up and were inspired by all around Liverpool. The Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane, the Cavern Club (where they performed over 200 times), the house that Paul McCartney grew up in, the church they were in choir in, among much more... Overall, really enjoyed Liverpool!
