Some more photos of Sunday in #Liverpool along the waterfront in the cafe at the Ferry Terminal there and an art display there. The mural of #GerryMarsden and photo of a young #JohnLennon

Ferry, Cross the Mersey
60 yrs ago
Life goes on day after day
๐ torn in every way
So Ferry, Cross the Mersey
Cuz this land's the place I love
& here I'll stay
People they rush everywhere
Each with their own secret care
So Ferry, Cross the Mersey
& always take me there
The place I love
#GerryMarsden
