On June 18 (incidentally Paul's birthday. These coincidences are really making me too excited) my family and I are leaving for a 2-week tour of the United Kingdom! We fly into Edinburgh, Scotland on Tuesday, head into Bath and the Cotswolds a few days later, and make it to Liverpool, England for a day! My feelings right now as I write this pretty accurately reflect the fangirls above. Liverpool, of course, being the hometown of our lovely lads, is the Beatles capital of the world! We're going to start at the Beatles Story, the most popular attraction in Liverpool and winner of the People's Choice Awards in 2012, and from there head to a Magical Mystery Tour of all the areas associated with the Beatles. So, in other words, in the coming days, I am going to see John, Paul, George, and Ringo's childhood homes, schools, favorite hangout places, the Cavern and Casbah Clubs, the music store John first bough his guitar, the real Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane, and, AND, the church where John Lennon met Paul McCartney for the first time. If I don't write in a long time, you'll know I probably died from overexcitement. Not to mention that when we head into London, we'll see Abbey Road studios! I'll try to post photos (if I learn how...) as soon as we get back!
