Ferry Good

Feb18-19
No time for sitting around… we jumped on the Ferry to Tunisia. OK, we didn’t quite jump - there was quite a lot of waiting in the terminal. Around 1.5 hours after it was scheduled to leave people laden down with huge bags of goods were shuffling through the gate so we decided to join them. It took some bumping and waiting to reach the front of the queue at which point we were told this was the line for the ferry to Algiers! After some more waiting we finally got on our ferry. Our cabins were very nice – bunks and showers. It was big fun being on the ferry – lots of shops, restaurants and bars. The coast of Marseille was
extremely picturesque. The trip was about 28 hours. Getting off the ferry was equally as crazy as getting on but that’s another story.
