Birthday Celebrations in Liverpool

 We had a wonderful day in Liverpool celebrating mom's birthday.  We spent the morning looking for a flat for an arriving senior couple and then decided to see go to the docks and check out the shops.  Love the architecture and museums.

 This is the display for the Titanic at a local museum.

 It was pirate day at the docks.  They were completely in character and very fun!

 At the docks we saw many locks attached to the fences and chains located around the dock.  The locks represent love for each other.  It shows your commitment to each other.

 The ferris wheel was closed on this day.  It is extremely high.

It was also biker day in Liverpool.  There were huge groups of motorcyclists so we thought it was so funny when we saw these bicycles lined up and tough looking people hanging around strutting their stuff.

 This tunnel goes underneath the water connecting Liverpool to  the other side of the bay.

Beatles Museum!

Chris's Baptism Stoke

 Sister Tholen and Sister Tuitupoe are so excited for Chris to be baptized.

The water was so hot that the Elders had to fill buckets with cold water in the kitchen to cool it down.  It was still very hot when Chris was baptized but everything went well.

Elder and Sister Bambrough

We were blessed to help Elder and Sister Bambrough move into their new bungalow in Preston.  (The one we just moved out of because we were transferred to Newcastle.)  We were sad to leave and also excited for our new area.  The Bambroughs were so tired but did amazingly well keeping up with us on the motorway driving for the first time on the wrong side of the road and wrong side of the car.  Love the Bambroughs.
