Liverpool - Day 1

We’ve walked for miles and had a fantastic day; the docks, The Cavern Club, The Terracotta Army at Liverpool’s World Museum (WOW - Fantastic), caught up with an old Army buddy now running a narrow boat business, eaten at Jamies and we are now back in the hotel bar with G&T

Will sleep well tonight

The terracotta Army is just a copy, isn't it? Didn't transport the real thing?
It does sound a wonderful day!

Great collage.

#2 daughter saw the terracotta soldiers in situ in China and thought they were so overwhelming they had to be fake! !

Great day Phil.i love liverpool!

@maggiemae They're the real thing. The 8 Warriors, the 2 models and every artifact; all genuine. Cost the museum £5.2m to get them and HM Government are underwriting the insurance as they are uninsurable.

What a lovely day. Those Terra Cotta Soldiers, they are incredible I’m sure!

[Carole Sandford]

Fab collage, amazing the scale of the things they unearthed!

Sounds like a fabulous day. We saw the Terracotta Warriors in Sydney a few years ago, a fabulous exhibition.
I saw Cilla at the Cavern Club too in the '60s before she was famous. Didn't manage ever to see The Beatles though.

@onewing Wow Babs, my Sister in Law would be so jealous as she is a massive Cilla fan. (You must have been very unlucky to have missed the Beatles, they played the Cavern 292 times apparently)

@phil_sandford I lived in Manchester at the time so only got to Liverpool occasionally. Plus also I was probably underage too to get in most places. Needless to say I lied about my age.

[Phil Sandford]

@onewing As did we all. 😜

[Paul]

Nice shot mate. Sounds like a great day :)
