Today, we bid adieu to Ireland, and made our way to England! We took a bus to the airport at five in the morning for our flight - and what a quick flight it was. It took less than a half an hour between takeoff in Dublin and landing in Liverpool! By 9 in the morning, we had stored our luggage at a train station, and set off to spend the next six-ish hours exploring Liverpool.
It was Easter Sunday, so we weren't sure what exactly would be open. We had planned on trying to see a lot of Beatles landmarks, but it turns out that Liverpool was a lot larger than we realized... Many of the landmarks we wanted to see were quite a distance away. So instead, we found The Beatles Story museum, and went to town. There was also a little Elvis exhibit down the road a little that our tickets gave us access to, so we spent most of our time between those two places. It was a simply gorgeous day in Liverpool - especially compared to the freezing days we had been having in Ireland.
At 3 in the afternoon, we boarded our bus that would take us from Liverpool back to Glasgow. It was quite the ride, but thankfully it went by pretty fast. We were back in Glasgow by about nine that evening, and despite sleeping pretty much the whole ride, I was exhausted.
The next three days were spent lazing around and then preparing for London!
And that is the conclusion to Part 1 of our fantastical Spring Break!
