“Hi I missed the 3.15 boat (too busy enjoying an ice cream) and Laura very kindly rescheduled it for me the next morning at 10.30. The boat ride was fabulous, comfortable and very relaxing. The boat driver was very informative and I felt a real sense of pride of place from him. We were fortunate to see the eagles fairly closely, they are so magical to see in flight and the driver did his best to make sure we would see them”
