On the day before the Liverpool trip, we went shopping downtown in Leeds and had lunch at Whitelocks, one of our favourite pubs--it was established in 1715!
At the Merseyside Maritime Museum in Liverpool--the painting of the Celtic, the ship that Grandma Pearson took from Liverpool to Ellis Island
The Magical Mystery Tour, a bus tour around the suburbs where the Beatles grew up, with their homes & schools & places from their songs
Albert Dock
George Harrison's birthplace
Strawberry Fields Gate
Mendips, where John Lennon was raised by his Aunt Mimi
The house where Paul McCartney grew up
Mathew Street
This new Titanic-themed hotel opened recently--so tacky...And the Titanic didn't even sail from Liverpool. It was built in Belfast and sailed from Southampton!
At the recreated Cavern Club in the Beatles Story museum
In the Yellow Submarine
John's glasses
Oh I am so happy Mommy got to see the painting of the Celtic! (And all the Beatles stuff too)
ReplyDeleteYeah, it was great! She loved seeing the painting, and she said the Beatles tour made her feel 13 again :)
