Tall Ships...

Welcome to Liverpool... this first shot was taken just outside of the old Town Hall, looking away from the docks. It was taken back in July, but if you review the July entries in the blog, you will notice that I had trouble loading images on more than one occasion. Tonight, they seemed to work...

I took the train from Southport to Liverpool so I could wander around the Wellington dock and have a look at the taller ships that were involved in the Liverpool Tall Ships Races.

An interesting shot of the Wellington basin... marred only by the One Way sign. Now, was that sign for the boats or the pedestrians?

Just to give you a sense of scale, look at the previous photo, then at this one. They are of the same rigging... the dark blobs in the photo above are the same sailors in the photo below...

It was a blustery morning... but a very satisfying walk around for me.
