Lark Lane in the afternoon sunshine! ☀️
Is there anywhere better on a day like today? 😍

Who else remembers how exciting a day out felt as a kid? 🥹🚌
Sometimes the adventure starts long before you arrive… and that’s exactly what happened as Gemma and Leo hopped on the bus to Crosby Beach for a day by the sea. 🌊
With buses running every 7–8 minutes from Liverpool city centre, getting there couldn’t have been easier. Paying is as simple as tapping your phone, pushchairs can be wheeled straight on without folding them down, and with under 5s travelling free, it’s a brilliant option for families. 🙌
From spotting Antony Gormley’s iconic Iron Men to enjoying an ice cream on the beach, Crosby is one of those classic Merseyside days out that’s always worth the trip. ❤️🍦
If you’re looking for an easy family adventure this summer, why not leave the car behind and… Let’s Bus It! 🚌
