Taking the Anderson Ferry

Ohio River Sunrise from the Anderson Ferry
Yesterday, my office had an off-site training at one of the SW Cincinnati parks. Instead of fighting my way through bridge traffic and a 12-mile or so drive along the river, I decided to take the Anderson Ferry across and avoid the traffic altogether.

The last time I took a ferry ride, I was in Ireland. I'd forgotten how really relaxing a ferry ride can be. It was a beautiful morning and grabbed my camera quickly when I noted this view yesterday. My only regret is that the ride is over in about five minutes or so. I'm like a kid, I could have ridden it all morning.

Thanks! I took several, this was one of the better ones. I'm sure the people who routinely ride the ferry thought I was nuts.

Ferry rides are becoming rare. And for me lately, so have "fairy" rides... :D

hahaha... I can't believe that joke got past *me* considering I can't shut myself up with that kinda stuff sometimes.

My all time favorite "ferry" ride is the one between Vancouver and Victoria Canada. It's absolutely gorgeous. I've always considered doing the tourist thing here and taking the ferry across the bay from SF to Sausalito but have never done it. One of these days...
