We arrived in plenty of time for the Marine Atlantic Ferry.
Waiting in line was a meet and greet for the motorcyclists since we are organized all together for boarding. We met a 70-year old from Newfoundland, returning with his new Harley and his side kick, a young military guy from Nova Scotia on his way back to his ship.
The room was quite small, something you would see in a submarine. Two people could not pass through in opposite directions. Very cosy sleeping arrangements - everyone with their own bunk, and very hot in the room.
As we waited for departure we enjoyed the harbour view. But, interesting there was a diver preparing to enter the water and investigate something under the ferry ???
On board we soon learned that the air-conditioning was not working and who knows what else - our departure was delayed 2 hours!
What were we to do? We of course tried some local brews - Iceberg and Black Horse - as well as some of our favourites. But clearly we could not keep up with some of the locals!
Harvey also helped pass the time, performing a mixture of rock, country and Irish tunes.
Hope the beers were good! Also those are some garishly bright chairs haha
