On the Road Again!

The World in Pictures - Day 4 I have been challenged by Neill Devall to post a picture, every day, for the next 10 days. The picture can be of anything you like but each picture must have been taken in a different country. You can tell us about the photo or not, as you wish but must at least specify the country. I'm not going to challenge anyone, but if friends want to take part so well and good! England - Liverpool 2007

And back to the Premier League. The toughest test since the opening two games when we lost, narrowly in one game, to the teams currently in the top three of the Premier League.  This time against the team in 2nd!

Up a bit late and. out about ten-ish for the short ride down the East Lancs Road and into Liverpool. Passing Goodison Park, the home of Everton FC,  on the way in. Royal Liver Building By ten thirty we were parking up in Albert Dock.  NB they make you pay to park - £1.50 an hour. We had an hour! Once at the Steam Packet we booked in. . Parked up and had a burger. When. We came to board we found that they guy hadn't given us a boarding card so they wouldn't let us on.  Back to the check-in for him to say he couldn't give us a new one but to go to the office.  Now we were experiencing one of those "Airline" TV programme events! We had to go through our luggag...
