What's wrong with Fort Perch Rock it's right on your door, when it's open, also try Peel Hey in Frankby, they do a nice tea and sarnie.

It amazed me how it got flooded during the last storm, after all these years of standing there. Owners letting it go to pot, maybe. So if it`s a bit wet keep the visitors away. Stick them in the Wilkies Funfair, if it`s still there.

It's going to be a busy week for them!
If they're into American literature and history you may find time to show them where famous American author Nathaniel Hawthorne lived in Rock Park, Rock Ferry. I don't think No.26 Rock Park exists now but you can still get a feeling of the place as it hasn't changed in some respects from the 1850s when he was there. Get them to close their eyes passing the pier end of the road but carry on to the Rock Park Road end and admire the river view. Hope the sun shines for them.
There's a biography of his life in England, including RF, in 'The English Experience', here:

Sorry, couldn't get the link to work but this is the book:

'Nathaniel Hawthorne: The English Experience, 1853-64', by Raymona Hull. 1980.

It's on Google ebooks.
