Coastal UK (Leg2b)

After a lovely breakfast and a stroll round Exeter I set off in the late afternoon to complete the leg to Bournemouth.

Glad to be back in the air  ;D

Now passing over Poole Harbour one of the largest natural harbours in the world.

Splendid shots. One correction though, Chesil beach is made up of Shingle, not gravel. ;D ;)
