There’s not a huge amount to\u00a0say<\/em> about the trip.
\nThe passenger areas of the ferry are quite nice, a lot of folks seem to stake out seats by a window and then immediately fall asleep, which seems like a waste of a nice view, and they really do pack the cars in on those decks.<\/p>\n

Turns out there’s a ramp from the lower deck, where you get\u00a0on<\/strong> the ship, to the upper deck; Said ramp lifts up when they’re sailing, possibly to limit the amount of weather & salt spray making it to the lower deck?<\/p>\n

And, of course, there’s the scenery.<\/p>\n

All of which eventually gets us to Picton.
\nWe were all herded downstairs, to vehicles or to a rabble on the lower deck, so I didn’t get to watch the docking. Basically, we stood in a clump until the big doors opened.<\/p>\n

Though I\u00a0did<\/strong> manage to get a shot just before I went to the lower deck, when we were almost there.
