Peter Rabbit Ferries Cross the Mersey

Exhausting! This trip, with a port and a long tour each day is exhausting! And Peter and Terry were wonderful but you should have seen me at the end of the 10 hour day we spent when in port in Liverpool yesterday! I barely could walk onto the ship and up to the buffet for dinner. Bedtime was quite early once again, but what a wonderful day it was!

We arrived on the Mersey River and although I didn't go on the ferry, I saw it when we returned at the end of a very long day. We drove to the Lake District, on the wrong side of the road, I might add, and it was beautiful! I know now why it is so famous. And Peter had planned the perfect day! I had to smile when I saw Terry walking towards us on the street, US flag waving in his hand! So sweet! We made it to Windemere in time for the steam train ride. It was short and smelly but beautiful. Then we joined hundreds of other cruise passengers who were on a tour to take a cruise on Lake Windimere. It was SO hot! They always tell me that it is unusual, however it is always very hot when I am here so I don't believe my British friends!

Well, I thought I could write more, but my eye is closing so it seems the rest will have to wait...
