Photo of the Day: Pete Carr and the Amazing Giant Spider
For 5 days in 2008 Liverpool became host to the worlds largest spider, La Princess. She was first spotted on Wednesday and a team of scientists arrived to investigage. On Thursday she was moved to the research lab at the Echo Arena where she was studied. But on Friday she woke up and went for a little walk. Soothing music and magical snow put her to rest though. However by Friday evening she was awake and off for a walk. She left the area by Albert Dock, wandered down the road and back into the dock for a bath. After that she slept outside Liverpool’s iconic 3 Graces. On Saturday she woke up and headed into town to take a look around. She was blasted with jets of water by the law courts and headed up to McDonalds. Magic snow put her back to sleep but then 2 hours later she was off again heading back up to Concourse House where she was first spotted. She slept for the night and on Sunday made a dramatic break for the Birkenhead tunnel. An epic battle ensued with water, fire, dramatic music and a team of soaking wet photographers.
