Seaplane views Vancouver Island - The views from the seaplane were amazing even though it was a cloudy misty day. Unexpected high mountain peaks and blue lakes on mountain tops.

Beverly Clark - I tried very hard to book a flight and was 1 hour on hold on the phone and.
The recorded message said One would have the opportunity to leave their phone number and be called back if they were unable to take your call.
They did not leave an opportunity to leave a number for a return call.
Although they very clearly promised.
There for I travelled by Helicopter instead.
