Do not ask the ice lolly man for directions.

This one time in Liverpool, Magdalaina asked the ice lolly truck driver for directions to our hostel. He talked for a long time and ended up leading us down an alley. This was before we knew about Magdalaina and her somehow endearing ability to misinterpret directions.

Laura and Magdalaina show you where it's at.

This one time in Liverpool, we trekked all over the suburbs looking for the Beatles sites. We started at Penny Lane and got lost around Sefton Park. It was cold, wet and nearly impossible to catch a cab, but once we did, our cabbie took us to Strawberry Field and told us about how Paul McCartney rode in his cab twenty years before!

Dirty RAT!

This one time in Liverpool, we found a Banksy piece by accident in Chinatown! We also saw a lot of stained glass and neon at Liverpool Cathedral. The Cathedral is so massive, it really makes you consider the influence of Catholicism at the time. Did you know the architect who designed the cathedral also desined those charming red phone boxes all over England? Now you know!
