    Rain is my favourite weather. I love its atmosphere & emotion. I think it's mysterious, soothing and softly energising. I love the splash, the umbrellas, the sound, the ambience, the mood. I'm a rain baby.

    So many interesting things to see in Liverpool. As well as the fantastic Victorian architecture, there are two fantastic cathedrals (and the Philharmonic pub halfway between them, the Georgian quarter, Williamson's tunnels, Chinatown, the Western Approaches museum, the Maritime museum, the old dock, the tunnel tour, so many more...

    Just love the laid back mood that comes off you, and the relaxing well chosen music.
    What I didn't follow is why you didn't appear to see, or even mention any lakes!
    Also you must be well used to rain as I have seen Texas rain, being an avid watcher of "Animal Cops Houston", where, my God, does it rain,
    and then on another, day the poor helpers are working in forty plus degrees in a stenching broken down shack, with hundreds of neglected cats, dogs and horses, that they have to get away on just that day!

  • @desmondjack6162
    @desmondjack6162 3 роки тому

    I might venture to suggest that when abroad and on holiday it might be wiser to eat the local, traditional food. Thai food in the Lake District is not going to be good unless you know where to go (with some local, insider knowledge). The exception to that general rule will be that Indian food is universally excellent everywhere in the UK. The Lake District is a remote and beautiful place; you would have been much better off choosing very traditional, local food.
