Sight seeing in Manchester.

As the weather had improved on what we had yesterday we decided to do the open top tour bus around Manchester. We finished up going around the circuit 1½ times before we alighted at the War Memorial. We wandered back to the boat through different streets picking up on different aspects of the city.
