Phase two of the Sea Odyssey - The Diver
The Little Girl Giant 's Uncle is on a quest to find her. He's been scouring the ocean floor for the Titanic shipwreck to put his brother to rest after he went down with the ship.
He found letter written by him to his beloved daughter. For the past 100 years he has walked across the ocean floor with the sole purpose of delivering the letter to its young owner. And now he’s set to emerge from the depths of the Mersey.
The Diver will depart from Albert Dock at 2pm, walk along The Strand, James Street, Castle Street, Dale Street, Moorfields, Tithebarn Street, Vauxhall Road, Boundary Street, Kirkdale Road, Walton Road, Salop Street, Tetlow Way, Langham Road, Walton Lane and arriving in Stanley Park from 6.30pm.
