Holy Cow Howard now I know why the ferry fares went up! ;-) To buy  
these new
ferries! I only thought they bought 2, obviously from your photo they  
bought
4 and didn't tell us :-) :-)

cheers,

Hi Ted,
When I take these panos vertically sometimes, with luck, I can turn a  
single ferry into five.
Now that would be expensive. :-)
Cheers
