Walk to Hightown, Liverpool, 26th Feb 2011

Another successful walk done. 
13 of us went to Hightown for a walk along the coast. After meeting at AiW for a quick coffee we jumped on the train and arrived in hightown to the sound of gunfire from the local army base (I hope). We set off for the coast and a walk along the sand in the cold and wind with the expectation of brighter spells later on in the day. Getting further into the walk I was suprised to see rather large bronze statues in the sand. No idea why they where placed their, but I am sure Chris would be able to tell us and it was rather amusing to see many of them with clothes on donated by eager sunbathers. A couple of us braved the quicksand conditions and wrecked our boots to get a couple close up pics.
After a stop off at the local swimming pool for a coffee the sun came out and we carried on the walk towards the train station along the public footpaths. At least that was the case for most of us with 3 (myself included) deciding to take the scenic route hurling ourselves from one sand dune to another while the others looked on. All in good fun. A quick treck through the town placed us nicely at the trainstation for a journy back to Hamilton Square. Another great walk and I can't wait for the next one which should be going out into North Wales. See you all on the next one.
