What's in Liverpool?

^.Well, this is Liverpool.


Let me tell you the story of Lambanana. Yes, the one below. Isn't is adrobale? At first I thought it was a weird looking dog and the curves behind are designed for kids to sit :D My friend told me this story: The city of Liverpool only have loads of goats but no banana. So, one day, they exchanged their goats to other country who have tons of bananas. Eventually, it became LAMBANANA! Yes, the combination of goat and banana turned this cute icon of Liverpool. There's about hundreds of Lambanana display in this country with various design. However, most of them have been sent to the museum. Only few left on the streets. It's kinda cute. Unfortunately, I don't know where to buy Lambannas plushie or something else. T___T I ended up only bought a yellow Lambanana fridge magnet :D


These are those designers outlet in Chester Oaks. There's Burberry, Ralph Lauren, GAP and lots more! Unfortunately, there's nothing much for me to shop lor. =(



Their yello bus stand. cute kan? My place here are all pink and purple xD



Ok, we are now approaching the Liverpool Cathedral. The semi-burned red cone.




My friend said it was the highest church in UK. This Cathedral took 74 years to build from 1904 to 1978. Wow, takes suh a long time, huh?





In the church, this is what u will see.



























We are allowed to tour at the top of the roof. As when you walked up, you can see this is where the bells are. Catheral bells ring on most Sundays and for certain services and special occasions.

Finally, we are at the top of the Cathedral! Now we are 331 ft (101 metres) high! In this spot, almost can see the whole town centre of Liverpool and also Anfield!

The top view from the Cathedral.





This is Liverpool's Stadium in Anfield. Seriously, the tour here is abit sucky compared to the one I've went in Korea. There are like more than 20 people in a group and we are only allowed few minutes to take pictures in one part. Especially in the dressing room. So many ppl post with those jerseys and by the time when it's ur turn, u won't get the chance to take picture. The staff will shoo you away and then quickly lock the door. wtf @.@







check this out.








Printing jersey process.


This is kinda famous actually. Where you put 1 penny and 50p into the machine and poof! They turned your 1p to some printed iconic coins :D interesting. Spare a couple of second to see how it actually works. :D



Oh, if u love Beetles, don't forget to isit their museum and souvenir shop :D They sell cute vintage clocks.
