Day 12 - Dublin – Chester – Liverpool
Cross the Irish Sea to Wales and continue to Chester. Your orientation walk here includes the Roman walls and the famous Tudor ‘Rows'. Enjoy a Cultural Insight into the life of the local Town Crier – an esteemed position which dates back to medieval times. Arrive later in historic Liverpool, hometown of the legendary Beatles.

Full Breakfast
Hotel
Our day began with a 2 hour "cruise" on the Irish Ferry back Jonathan Swift into Wales.
The time we spent in Ireland was wonderful.

Another picturesque journey down to Chester, a wonderful Tudor style town.
We had a guided tour around this very beautiful place. Then free time for lunch.
We stumbled across a pub that was over 400 years old, and is included in the Ghost tours. Legend has it a ghost spooked the man making the sign for the pub he spelt Marlbourgh incorrectly!
Then onto the Off the Wall pub for a cheap feed and a drink before meeting up with the Town Crier, who had me record the fun and games on my "cheap" movie camera!
Next onto Liverpool and The Jury's Inn. Another excellent hotel.
On advice from our friend Cat, we met up with a group and walked (in the rain again) and got lost along the way (again) to the place where the Beatles used to play called the Cavern. We all had the best night! And all agreed it was so worth getting lost and wet. The music and venue were FABULOUS ......

Yet another outstanding day.
