Kalakala sighting! Back in 2000/2001, I was part of the volunteer crew trying to rehab the silver slug. At one point, we had a foundry set up on the cardeck to cast replacement parts.

For those who don't know the history:

The ferry can take you from port to port,
but reading is a portal to a whole other world...

Take the trip! #ReadABook 📚

Photo through half-opened double door, looking into ferry passenger area from outside, lone person reading book among rows of empty cushioned armchairs. Image neatly bifurcated down middle, with closed portion of door on right reflecting receding Seattle skyline in glass.

Glad to hear you can bring your own reusable cups to ferry galleys again.

I've been riding these boats long enough to remember when people buried their faces in #newspapers instead of screens.

Every ferry ride is a photo opp and there are always new angles to explore! Shooting in monochrome adds drama and gravitas.

Let's get started with the basics: Washington State Ferries (WSF) is a public ferry system in the U.S. state of Washington. It operates 10 routes serving 20 terminals within Puget Sound and in the San Juan Islands. It's the largest ferry system in the United States!
