Liverpool Day 1

3 weeks holiday break! Might as well make the most of it by going for road trips!
1st road trip, Liverpool!

After leaving the super huge Lime Street Station, we headed to our hotel which is close to Albert Dock.

1 thing I notice the minute we stepped off the train was how COLD it was in Liverpool! It's twice as cold here compared to Birmingham.

On the way, we noticed they have a Liverpool Eye.

Liverpool Eye

Albert Dock, a UNESCO site

Do you know the Beatles first started in Liverpool?

I didn't hear good reviews about this, so we didn't go for it

Room price was really cheap! 40 pounds per night for 3 occupants. Good Deal! Room was really clean, 1 complain is the bunk bed I slept on. I kept knocking my head on the ceiling! Not a good way to wake up in the morning -.-

When we reached our Hotel, we couldn't check in cause we were too early, so we decided to go shopping instead. Good thing it's free of charge to leave our luggage there. They charge in London! Me heart Liverpool!

Because it gets dark at 4pm, we didn't have much to do except lunch and shop, so we decided to go sightseeing the next day instead.

The next day, we went to Liverpool Cathedral. By the way, it's SUPER huge!


Entrance




Hello!

We noticed that there were no pins from Malaysia, so we happily added a pin on Malaysia! Yipee! Malaysia Boleh!


Next, we went to Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.

We noticed the University of Liverpool was beside the Cathedral.

Kinda small, I thought it would be a huge campus

Next, we went to China Town. It was listed as the oldest China Town in UK, but quite a dissapointment when we reached there. Nothing was open!

Next, St George Hall

Again, nothing to shout about. Basically it's a huge spot with statues and a empty building
