Capital of Culture...what's worth seeing

[mwgdrwg]

Sounds like you had a great time!
Lovely weather in Liverpool today as well.

Yep I had a great day, and the weather was gorgeous.

My daughter loved the gallery, and she had a great time on her first trip to Goodison Park. When I asked her what the best bit of the day was...it wasn't the match, but making Chinese lanterns in the kids bit in the gallery

I went back to the Pool today to see the iron men! The weather was stunning beyond belief, and I got some nice pix. Will be going back a few times this year to soak it up, it's one of the best cities in the world.

 

[boohoo]

I'm visiting in a couple of weeks.... so any other suggestions would be welcome....

Nice photos Wookey. That top one reminds me of the cover for the Bunnymen's Heaven Up Here.

there are the various building sites that were meant to be things finished in time for 2008.

and then there is... erm te same stuff thats been there for the past few years but now with an 08 logo


to be fair there is a lot to see in the city just that I cant really think of that much that was specific for the cap of culture

Just realised that today is the last day for the Walker's Joseph Wright of Derby in Liverpool show-
It has been so poorly publicised, I'd been planning to go and see it at Easter.

I live in the 'pool and somehow completely missed the Turner Prize. Will make more effort to get to the Klimt exhibition when that's in town though!

 

[boohoo]

Can't wait til the Klimt exhibition...

I'm in liverpool from Wednesday...hooray!!!

I should've said...I've lived in Liverpool before so I've been to all those places. I want to go and see new things which have been commissioned for this year, there's that building with a revolving hole in it for a start (where's that?)

Quite near the centre - one of the streets off Tithebarn street. It's worth a look, very clever
