Tuesday, June 30, 1953 7.30 a.m. Left Worcester by coach for LIVERPOOL where we saw off those sailing home on s.s. "EMPRESS OF AUSTRALIA."
			Built in 1924 the Empress of Australia was originally the De Grasse of the French Line. She was sold to CP in 1953, but sold again to Siosa Line in 1956 and renamed Venezuela. She stranded near Cannes in 1962 and was scrapped.
					Interesting to read the ship was sunk during the war; then raised, refitted and put back into service.
							4.30 p.m. Tea at the Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool.
							Built in the early part of this Century, the Adelphi Hotel quickly became "one of the great hotels in the World". From 1914 the Adelphi catered to the needs of the Liverpool port. 5.00 p.m. Left Liverpool for CHESTER
