Sounds great. Yes, I only tried it once, and its wonderful to hear that that
ferry option has improved. We don't have problems with sea sickness,
although having people around you getting sick is not that pleasant either.
Does the ferry operator have a website? How much per person for a roundtrip?
Is that a passenger ferry only or do they carry a lot of goods as well? If
there is a website I look the details up.
Thanks,
Sabine
