anybody here ride the ferry? i live and work in the city, so don't do so as a commute, but i do love to ride them just for the heck of it, and it's really fun to go with someone you like to neck with. heck, they even serve booze.
the one i've taken most often is the one to jack london square. heinhold's first and last chance saloon is a great old dive bar, well worth the trip. some times on lovely days i just take the ferry over there, have a beer, and head on back. the commute direction they're really crowded, but coming back to the city they're virtually empty.
and the crew seem very convivial, as if they actually like their jobs.

Re: Who you calling a ferry?
Tue, January 29, 2008 - 5:33 PMI lived in Solano County for a brief period and used to take the Vallejo ferry into the City from time to time. I loved it. (That's a roger on serving booze!)
Thanks for the tip about Heinhold's. I may just have to take a trip over there. -

Tue, January 29, 2008 - 5:44 PMOkay, I know you guys love it for the booze, but I'm a sucker for hot chocolate on the ferry on a cold and windy day. It makes me feel all happy inside, and oddly like I live in New York or Seattle (but that is not happy related I don't think).
