After a very early night for me (about 4pm!!), I was full of beans this morning, sadly the same couldn’t be said for Toby who had a migraine. I popped in to to town via M&S and topped up supplies, along with an anniversary card after Toby told me he has got me one (no pressure then!!). Anne-Marie and Simon were due to arrive lunchtime, sadly a points failure caused delays so it was a late lunch on board.
We left Toby to snooze and walked around Albert Docks and had a hot chocolate at the Rough Bakery, it’s just chocolate twirls with hot frothy milk – delicious.
Anne-Marie and Simon took a trip up the Royal Liver Building, and I had a cuppa in the fab four cafe overlooking the Beatles statue.
In the evening we were treated to a fab Italian meal in town, Toby and Simon had some of the biggest pizzas I’ve seen.
After dinner we headed into town to wait for the Brasilica Samba Festival parade to pass through. We had to wait a lot longer than we were expecting, but there were over 500 people in the parade so it seemed to go on and on for ages!
We ended up heading back to Oliver at about 10:30, rather later than planned but it was worth it to see the spectacle. I had been wanting to get some pictures of Oliver in the docks at night, so this was the perfect opportunity!
Well done Sarah – great night time picture. I loved the light coming through Olivers stained glass window.
