As we had to work during the morning, we’ve decided to go to the docks in the afternoon. We arrived around 5.30pm on the docks and it was very crowded. Hubby left me on the docks and went to find a parking space and, obviously, after that we couldn’t find each other, with the Giant’s route blocking a lot of streets. In the local newspaper they estimated that on Friday there were 300,000 people, so on Saturday I think it was twice as many. It felt more crowded.
I was on the other side of the barriers, somewhere 😀
The girl is looking at the grandma. The giants look so real, mainly because they are made to act as humans. It’s amazing.
I called hubby when I saw the bride and asked him where he was. When he told me he is near a hotel I which was seeing it in front of me, I asked him if he can see the bride and then we realized… We were on opposite sides, both on the same place, without setting up a point of meeting, it just happened. Isn’t that romantic?
People around me didn’t understand why I was waving at the other side and why hubby took a few pictures of me. It was funny.
Nothing special regarding the police, it’s the way they behave all the time. They are helpful, answering a lot of questions, joking, and helping people who were sick due to high temperatures on Friday. But it’s not only that, they were very polite too, staying on the pavement, where possible, so people could see better.
This docks aren’t open to the public, so it was a treat to see them. At the end of the post, I’ve added a few pictures from the less known side of Liverpool.
I didn’t think it’s possible that the giants interact. The grandma and the little girl danced, really great.
The little girl was jumping on her bed, it was funny. I didn’t have enough time to process the movies I’ve taken with the phone, I will do that next week and make a new post with the movies.
This is Wallasey Town Hall, in the Wirral, seen from the docks. It’s a lovely building.
