The Big Ferry

I felt like a kid again, with the excitement of driving onto such a huge boat. The overnight ferry from Melbourne to Devonport, called the Spirit of Tasmania, isn't large compared to some of the cruise ships I've seen, but it's the biggest boat I've ever been on.

I parked my bike beside a couple of men on Harleys from the Hobart region. Nigel and Mick seem like great guys, and we're currently sitting back with a Cascade (great Tassie beer!) watching the lights of busy Melbourne fade into the distance. Tommorow morning we'll arrive in Devonport!
