This last week my man surprised me with a Birthday trip to Liverpool, the home of the Beatles! I turned 27 and wasn't really looking forward to the week so he took me away for a couple of days. We stayed in the Hard Days Night hotel in the Cavern Quarter of the city. This hotel is the fanciest hotel I have ever stayed in and we were lucky enough to get a Ringo room. We had a lovely two days in a city that was completely new to us, we ate some great Thai food at Chaophraya in Liverpool 1, visited the Beatles Story by the docks and found out lots of new information about the Beatles that I didn't already know. I think that my favourite place was Mathew Street, home of the Cavern Club (both the original and the re-built one), the Grapes pub where the Beatles had their pre and post gig drinks, and a generally nice atmosphere :) I enjoyed having a drink in the Cavern pub with some free live music, getting to read through all the people who have played their over the years and all the newspaper clippings with stories of goings on there. Great stuff! I say that if you get a chance to, go see it for yourselves.
