Took a trip on the MSC to celebrate brother in laws birthday at the end of May. Second time I have done this trip , for those of you who have not done it yet I highly recommend it. Embark at Pier Head, sail across the river to the locks at Ellesmere Port then 5-6 hour trip to Salford Keys and home by coach. Just a few pictures to illustrate the trip, hopefully in order of the journey.
