Morecambe Bay coastal tour to Barrow & back by plane
Had a very enjoyable tour up the west coast from Blackpool to North of Morecambe across to the Southern Lakes, Barrow and return. Ken was very informative about the area of which we are residents, so we had some thing in common. It was wonderful to see the area from a different view, including our homes. Well done Ken for a great flight, Would recommend this to any one.
