A ferry good dayWe don’t ride the passenger ferry much. That’s a shame. It’s always a great treat to come across actually being able to see everything, and to breath and feel the sea breeze on your face, not to be buried between a loaded down Suzuki on one side and an idling delivery truck on the other, like on the barge. Take a ferry ride across, below. (Apologies to those of you who don’t get to get off the boat when we get there.) 11 Responses to “A ferry good day” |

That was a ferry good day! Even better if I was on it!

Very nicely done… And even though I didn’t physically get off the boat, I got off the boat……

Wow, between the ferry ride, jeep cam, vista views, beach breaks (and everything in between) you can take a virtual trip to STJ!! Who needs to spend the money on a villa when you can have this at your fingertips! (Well, almost, NOTHING beats the real thing!) Thanks guys for bringing us to our piece of paradise!

Yeah for the special appearance by Ron!
Never been on the ferry coming in, only going out! Thanks for the lift.

By the way, was that Jorge in the purple shirt and bucket hat?

We miss the passenger ferry ride now that we’ve been Car Barge converts the past 2 years now. (Thanks to Jeff and Russ) There’s still that view as one comes into the harbor at Cruz Bay that instanly sets the tone and mood of arriving on the Rock. That being said, having all our stuff in the car already and not schleping it 3 or 4 times to get it to the villa is Priceless.
Great Vid…Thanks

It’s always a debate whether ’tis better to cab it all the way to Red Hook for the cheap ‘n’ frequent ferry, or take a shorter/cheaper cab ride for the occasional/expensive ferry out of Charlotte Amalie. If we can make the 4:00 ferry, occasional/expensive usually wins. Thanks for the FerryCam.

Hey guys – Sadly took the downtown ferry yesterday to grab my flight back to the mainland. Should return to St. John and Skyridge in Coral Bay in July for another extended stay. Thanks for all that you do.
