Welcome to Lockdown Waterloo

 

Firstly, a big thank you to all of those who have followed this blog on Social Media especially at a time when lockdown is preventing any real chance to welcome anyone to Liverpool. It isn’t easy to update a blog about Liverpool when I am presently only leaving home to do the statutory walk! But it is a beautiful walk near to Crosby Beach, about 5 miles from Liverpool City Centre. 

So in the absence of anything else here are some photo highlights from recent walks!

We are very lucky to live just a short walk from the beach -

And once we get to beach it isn't long before we meet our good old friends from Another Place. The iron men remain a popular sight - especially when there is not much else to do. There are days when the poor guys struggle with the elements!

But on this occasion a well meaning local resident has come to the rescue.

I have written before about the beautiful skies over Crosby Beach at certain times of the day and they never let us down - 

Just behind the beach are the two marinas with their surprising variety of birds

And we can rest assured that the local guard of honour will keep an eye on us! 

A short detour into the sandhills presents a lovely view of the Marinas and the Terraces that are worth a visit in their own right and include the home of the Captain of the Titanic! 

 

 Keep safe!
