Title: Ferry across the Mersey
Post by: funtimefrankie on March 01, 2012, 09:12:35 pm
First things first, Pie and a pint in "The Lion", underneath the rather nice sky-light.
Then down to Pier Head, rather spoilt by the burger van.
The ferry arrives, and a better view of the Liver Buildings

HMS Liverpool moored just down river,
A view of "the Three Graces" plus the Liverpool to the left and new museum to right.
Passing Tug "Victory"
Return from Birkenhead after a few more jars, sailing into the sunset.
And a last view of the ferry

Hope this helps

You missed out "Johnnie" Walker's statue and that other one, you know, the songwriter chappie!
The last time I took the ferry the U boat had just arrived ine Birkenhead and was sitting on the dockside looking as if it was ready to put 2 fish into Spiller's Petfoods.
