Liverpool

Map of Liverpool
The Overseas Student Association here organizes trips to major cities regularly and last weekend's (i.e. 19 Jan) was to Liverpool. Well, actually all they do is to hire a coach to bring us there and back. These trips are "touch-and-go" affairs, really. The coach leaves the campus at 8.30, and leave for the campus at 5pm. Discount away the 2 hours road time per way, we really only have a few hours for sight seeing. But one cannot be too fussy with the ticket costing only 5GBP per head, which is a few fold cheaper than going on your own by train.

I supposed the most famous things about Liverpool are The Beatles, and Liverpool Football Club. (Apologies to Everton fans, but they really should have called themselves Liverpool United or Liverpool something), so a trip of few hours should not exclude visits to places related to them. But since I am not a fan of either, there is not much things to say, except maybe "It's raining, as usual". So just enjoy the photos I have taken!
