George played his panpipes while everyone else woke up at the dawn of Halloween. By 8:00 am, the train finally made it to Canterbury much to our heroes' excitement. "This is what I call the perfect ending to an eventful ride!" Pattie said as they came to a full stop. "And you even got a souvenir from the battle, sweetheart!" George replied with a wink. Pattie chuckled in response.

Shortly after all the passengers had disembarked, the driver decided to have a little chat with the Harrisons and Ringo. He said, "The fireman told me you had one heck of a fight with that Phantom Tyrannus. Good thing none of you got hurt in the process!" George replied, "Not at all, sir! It's safe to say that he underestimated our teamwork." Ringo added, "As a result, he ended up becoming nothing more than a heap of soot!" Sparkie made a noise that sounded like he was saying, "Yeah!" The driver could not believe his ears! "You mean you ACTUALLY killed him?!" he replied. "Right as rain!" nodded George. The driver then remarked, "Well, I'll be! That was bloody magnificent!" Laura replied, "Sure was! Best. Showdown. EVER!!!" Pattie added, "I echo what my daughter said!" George and Ringo smiled, too.

The chat ended with the driver saying his thanks for saving the ride and wishing them a lovely visit. Afterwards, George called Harry to let him know that they have arrived while Pattie, Laura, and Ringo bought some candy from a sweets shop.

An Inspiring Summer Part 4

About an hour later, George, Pattie, Ringo, and Laura returned downstairs to explore the lobby. In addition to a Mediterranean-themed restaurant, there were two kiosks which were specially made for beachgoers: One sells swimwear and inflatables, while the other offers various bottled refreshments (water, soda, juice, and even chocolate drinks). As they passed by the hotel's bulletin board for upcoming events, one of them caught Laura's attention. She said, "Daddy George! Take a look at this!" George did so with Pattie and Ringo following behind him. He then said, "Oooh! That sounds bloody exciting!...

After going through the usual check-in process, the group went straight to their room. Upon entering, they were amazed at how big and beach house-like it was. There were two beds (one queen-size and one single-size), a living room area, a dining table, and a balcony with an excellent view of the sea. George remarked, "Now THIS is what I'd call the perfect place for us to sleep and relax in while we are here!" Laura replied as she tested the softness of their bed, "That's what I thought, too, daddy George!" Pattie added, "And we can enjoy the view while sipping on some tea or coffee as well,...

Once everyone was on board, they soon had a breezy ride on the highway to their destination. "I hope we can find some inspiration for the songs in our new album during this trip, mate.", said Ringo. George replied, "I'm certain we will, Ritchie. The beach offers plenty of ideas for that." Ringo replied, "Yeah, you are correct there!" Sparkie made a noise that sounded like he was saying, "Indeed!" Pattie said, "You and your mates are gonna release a new album, darling? How splendid!" George said, "That's right, sweetheart! The planned date is August 5." Pattie gave a thumbs up in response. Laura...

The summer of '66 has officially started, and you know what that means... Time for another exciting beach trip! Let's head on over to Kinfauns and see how George and his daughter are getting prepared, shall we?

With his ringing alarm clock and the sun's rays reflecting through the windows awakening him, George exclaimed, "Today's the day! Time for me to get ready!" He then stopped the alarm, got up from bed, and proceeded to the bathroom for a shower (complete with some singing). Afterwards, he dried himself off, put on clean boxers and his outfit for the ride to Weymouth, brushed his pearly-whites,...

It was almost evening while the heroes and Lucky were walking back to the Palace. "So how was your call with the police, ma'am?", asked Laura. Elizabeth replied, "It went well, Laura. They actually thanked me for letting them know where Sinister Gates was. He's been on their wanted list ever since the ban on dog fighting came into full effect. But because he does his dirty business in secret, they had quite a difficult time tracking him down. That is, until earlier." Laura remarked, "Oh, good to hear!" George added, "Yes. And he won't be able to run away from them anymore after Lucky and I...

"Well done, my friends!", remarked Elizabeth as she returned from calling the police and saw how George, Pattie, and Laura had defeated Sinister Gates and his comrades. George replied, "Woof! Thank you, Your Majesty! I must say we had one heck of a showdown!" Pattie nodded in agreement. Laura added, "And look who escaped from the cage at last!" With that, Lucky barked happily upon seeing his beloved master and proceeded to give her a hug with his paws. Elizabeth said, "My darling Lucky! How I missed you very much! Are you all right?" He made a noise that sounded like he was saying, "Yes, I...

At about the same time, the comrades of Sinister Gates returned, and what they reported certainly didn't please him. One said, "Boss, we hate to break this to you, but we weren't able to catch an opponent for that royal dog. You might as well postpone the fight in the meantime." Gates replied, "What?! NO! I want the money NOW!! Your search wasn't good enough, idiots!" Another replied while shaking with fear, "But we are already tired! Can't you give us all a break?" Gates retorted, "I will not rest until the blood of this furball is in my hands!" Just then, he froze upon hearing a woman's voice...

After crossing that bridge, the group walked through a grassy area until they finally reached the power station. George remarked, "Judging by its name alone, this building can generate jolts of electricity for the nearby areas, eh?" Elizabeth replied, "You are correct, George. That's the main purpose for why it was opened back in the 1930's." Laura said, "Oooh, very interesting. I just learned something new!" Pattie added, "So did I, darling! Woof!" George and the Queen smiled in return. Once they made it to the entrance, and due to the door's handle being rather high, our heroes decided to...

Once they were back outside, our heroes proceeded to the Palace gardens to activate the Corgi necklace. Since this is going to be an undercover search, they went for one of its more private spots: The gazebo. Afterwards, Elizabeth said, "Our time has come, my friends. Are you ready for this?" Laura replied, "Yes, ma'am. We're all set!" George and Pattie agreed. Elizabeth replied, "Very well, then!" So with five taps, the pendant's eyes glowed, and its mouth opened to release four small clouds of indigo-colored smoke. Then, one by one, they transformed the Queen, George, Laura, and Pattie into...

While walking to the Queen's apartment, it was revealed that Lucky was the Corgi who had gone missing, and that he was last seen the day before the news broke out during a hike at the nearby park. "We've searched everywhere, but to no avail sadly. I just hope my poor angel is going to be fine...", finished Elizabeth. George replied, "Don't worry, ma'am; I'm certain about that once we find him." Laura added, "And whoever is responsible for this will be in BIG trouble! Right, daddy George?" George remarked, "Precisely, Laura, darling! You took the words straight out of me mouth!" Pattie exclaimed,...

"Hello again, Your Majesty!", called out George as they were approaching the entrance. The Queen was pleasantly surprised upon hearing his Liverpudlian voice and replied, "Greetings, my friends! What brings you back here?" George said, "Me daughter and I have come to help you in finding one of your lost Corgis. We heard about it through the paper yesterday." Elizabeth said, "Really? Well, that's very kind of you! I am just about to begin the search party myself." Pattie remarked, "Yes! I knew it!" That made George place a hand on her shoulder and say, "Oh, I almost forgot to introduce you to...

Next morning, George and Laura drove off to fetch Pattie before proceeding to the Palace for their mission. Laura said while they were on the road, "Gee, daddy George. I wonder what happened to that poor Corgi..." George replied, "Me too, Laura, darling. I'm sure we'll find out about that soon, though." Laura smiled and nodded in agreement. Pattie herself was ready and waiting by the time they reached her flat. As she boarded George's car, the lovebirds greeted each other with sweet pecks on the cheek. He then asked, "How are you, love?" Pattie replied, "I'm doing great, honey. Thanks!" George...

Starting Over Final Part

It was almost 11:00 pm by the time the group capped off a very tasty dinner. After paying for their food, they decided to take another walk around the restaurant's area for a bit. Then, they returned to the hotel and their respective rooms. George, Pattie, and Laura relaxed together on the couch before calling it a night. The latter said as she looked at the shamrock vase they made, "Well, daddy George, looks like our trip is almost over now. I guess we can say that we had a blast overall!" George replied, "We certainly can, Laura, darling! This is truly yet another experience which we'll never...

The day of the second concert was finally here, and everyone had returned to spending time at St. Stephen's Green after the mop-topped lads left their instruments on the stage. While it was John, Paul, Ringo, and Mike's turn to explore the park's other side, George, Pattie, and Laura went on a stroll by the pond. "Daddy George, look! Swan boats! Can we go for a ride on them, please?", exclaimed Laura at one point during it. George replied, "Absolutely, Laura, darling! I'd enjoy a good boat ride myself." He then asked his sweetheart, "How about you, love?" Pattie replied, "You've just read my...

After two days of resting from their adventures, the Beatles and Laura scheduled their second concert for tomorrow (March 29) during lunch time before heading to a department store located at the city square. George had already returned the van to the rental center and bought more blueberry scones by this point. As they began walking, Laura remarked, "It's fair to say that I've collected a great number of shamrocks throughout our tours, daddy George! Twenty in total!" George replied, "You certainly did, Laura, darling! Speaking of, that just gave me an idea!" Laura said, "Oooh! What is it?"...

Later that evening, our heroes went to have dinner at a cafe located just outside the Castle grounds. Aside from the main course, they ordered a whole Black Forest cake complete with large cherries on top (This was Laura's choice for her birthday) to share for dessert. Laura told her father while the food was in preparation stage, "It's hard to believe I'm ten years old and a big girl now, daddy George!" George replied, "I agree with that, Laura, darling! Seems like only yesterday when I first met you at that orphanage, and you were eight back then." Laura replied, "Yeah. Time really does fly...

March 25, 1966

Today is officially Laura's tenth birthday, and the group had just reached the vicinity of the last place to visit in their itinerary: Blarney Castle, which is home to the famed Blarney Stone. Of course, there's also a good number of well-kept gardens that are open for anyone to stroll around and even just to relax. "So how are we going to see the Blarney Stone, daddy George?", asked Laura as her father studied the map. George replied, "Well Laura, darling, I'm happy to say we'll just need to go up to the roof of the Castle to accomplish that! It is located right there." Laura...

Laura had such a wonderful sleep throughout the rest of the road trip that she got up immediately when George brought the van to a parking spot and as Pattie shook her in a gentle manner while saying, "Wake up, dear! We made it." Laura replied, "Perfect timing, Pattie. Perfect timing!" This made her chuckle in response. Once everyone had disembarked, George carried his daughter for a shoulder ride and said, "I see you slept veddy well, Laura, darling!" Laura responded, "I sure did, daddy George! That was refreshing, too." George smiled and remarked, "I'm glad." Laura smiled back. Expressions...

Two days later, everyone woke up at around 5:00 am and were on the road to Giant's Causeway. Now if you're wondering why they left an hour before sunrise, that is because George thought it would be best to see the place first thing in the morning and so that he could watch the sun come out while driving. As he whistled merrily, Pattie and Laura were sharing a sweet mother-daughter moment together. Laura asked, "Pattie, how has your career as a model been thus far?" Pattie replied, "Good question! It's been very lovely overall, my darling!" Laura remarked, "Awesome! I'm glad to know that." Pattie...

The Beatles, Pattie, Laura, and Mike kicked off the new day with their much-anticipated morning swim. Even Sparkie couldn't resist joining them in the water just like what he did at Blackpool two years ago! Laura also brought along and wore her goggles so that she could do some beach diving. Ringo said, "It's very nice to go swimming with you for the first time, Pattie!" She replied, "Thanks, Ringo! The same goes for you all." George said, "Indeed, my love!" Everyone continued having a lot of fun for the next two hours. Afterwards, they proceeded to the picnic table where they ate the canned...
