April 2023

It was during Easter half term I decided to get some time away with my son, taking our first visit to Liverpool, a gateway to a world of discovery, where we would explore the vibrant streets, indulge in the city's rich history, and revel in the luxurious comforts of a hotel stay

Excitedly, we embarked on a coach journey to Liverpool from London Victoria, both hearts pounding with anticipation. The comfortable ride offered the perfect opportunity for us to be immersed in the stunning landscapes of the journey, soaking in the beauty of rolling hills and the picturesque countryside.

Arriving in Liverpool, we checked into the Radisson Blu as it had the spa facilities we both agreed were essential after the long trip to the city. This was to be our temporary home for this delightful escapade. The hotel exuded an air of sophstication and hospitality, instantly making us feel at ease. Our room became a sanctuary, a comforting retreat after a day of exploration. 

Eager to dive into the city's treasures, we booked a sightseeing tour bus for an easy way to see all the landmarks. From the iconic waterfront, where the legendary Albert Dock stood proud, to the majestic Liverpool Cathedral, every step was an opportunity to delve into the city's rich heritage.

After a day of exploration, we indulged in the hotel's spa facilities. The serene ambiance melted away any fatigue as we sank into the soothing waters of the pool and relished in the gentle caress of the sauna. It was a rejuvenating experience, leaving us both refreshed and ready to continue the adventure. Despite Liverpool offering a plethora of culinary delights, from Chinese food to Popeye's fried chicken, my son chose to have room service instead. He ordered the traditional burger, chips and milkshake which met his expectations

As the trip drew to a close, I couldn't help but reflect on the memories we had made. The coach journey, the sightseeing tour, and the indulgence in the hotel's spa facilities had woven a tapestry of experiences that would forever hold a special place in both our hearts. Liverpool had not only showcased its vibrant soul but had also given us a glimpse into a world of possibilities.

With newfound confidence and a spirit filled with gratitude, we bid farewell to Liverpool, carrying the city's charm and hospitality within our souls. Our short trip has left an indelible mark, reminding us of the joy of exploration, the beauty of togetherness, and the endless wonders that await those who embrace life's adventures.
