Prioritized Daily Task 

Tuesday-Liverpool, (Matt, Melodie, and Vickie - tour movie set) United Kingdom, city docks and Beatles Story tour. Debbie and I watched the girls, Madeline, and Bella.

Note: Sandy Youngblood, Earlton's wife, passed away today, June 18th, 2024

Debbie and I slept in.  Debbie is not feeling well but got up and we had prayer together.  I met Matt in the Windjammer buffet on our deck.  We had a meeting with his program developers.  I waited with him until everyone came down except Elain, Lori Lynn, and Eric.  We had breakfast and met on the dock for a water tour of Liverpool on the ferry boat.  Afterward, we caught a double-decker open-top bus for a get-on-get-off tour of the city.  The Beatles musical group made Liverpool famous.  We took pictures and fro 44 pounds (about $58) rode the large Wheel of Liverpool.  The Wheel is awe-inspiring, 60m (196 ft.) tall, and has 42 fully enclosed climate-controlled gondolas. It opened in March 2010 and cost 6 million pounds.  The audio we listened to while on our 10 to 12-minute ride told us the Ferris wheel was made in Switzerland, bought here, and assembled.  I tried verifying this but nothing on the internet I could find told what company made the wheel or what country they were from.  Debbie and I had a nice lunch with Madeline and Bella at Panam restaurant in Royal Albert Dock.  We walked down the dock and got the girls a Whip 'em Up fruit bubbly desert, something you might expect to find at Starbucks.  The temperature dropped and it started to rail a little.  The girls were cold and we went to The Pride of Liverpool store and got them both a hooded sweatshirt with Liverpool and Elgland on the front.  When we got back to the ship we went with the girls to their cabin and texted them later to make sure they were OK.  Matthew, Melodie, and Vickie got back to the ship before 5 PM.
