Day 7: Ticket to Ride – The Beatles
Today was a nice, beautiful, easy day in Liverpool. We had the morning free so a few of us went to this restaurant called The Hub for breakfast. When we sat down we, I couldn’t wait to order a cappuccino. Naomi, Diego, and I were waiting to place our order for food because we were […]
Day 7: Liverpool is in My Ears and in my Eyes
Sunday, May 12, 2019. Today was a dream come true, really. My family is really into music and I have been listening to The Beatles for longer than I can remember. Now, I am in Liverpool where music history was made! The morning was free, so I took that time to sleep and visit a […]
Day Seven: I drank four cups of English Breakfast tea today…
Our free morning could not have come at a better time than it did in Liverpool. Nothing felt better than waking up without an alarm and having time to do things at our own pace. Around 11:15, we ventured out to find a breakfast place because we just weren’t feeling the hotel breakfast. In our […]
All You Need Is A Beatles tour …
Sunday started with bright blue skies and sunny weather, a glorious day, as my young friend James wrote to me later. Yes, indeed, is has been from start to finish. I had long looked to seeing the Beatles up front and personal this trip, and the day did not disappoint me one bit. Cheryl and […]

Beatle Mania
I will admit I am not a Beatle’s fan. I knew that some days on the trip would not be as fun as others, and for me that was today. However, I do respect The Beatle’s and their influence on the world. As a One Direction fan, there were always comparisons to The Beatles and […]
Day 7: Here Comes the (Liverpool) Sun
We may have had a large dinner, but I still woke up ready for a delicious breakfast. Mya, Jocelyn, and I went to a nearby cafe for some pancakes, waffles, and coffee, and they did not disappoint. It was nice to be able to take our time in the morning since we didn’t have to […]
Day 6: Shakespeare – The Man or the Myth?
Oh the beauty of Stratford-upon-Avon. I wish I had more than just an afternoon to explore this small town and do as much sight seeing as possible. It felt similar to Windsor in the fact that it is much smaller than London and has a lot more land and nature to take in. Of course, […]
