Car Barge

Whoops! This weekend came and went and no pictures went on the blog.  Yesterday was a very fun-filled and busy day of boating (after which I promptly came home and slept for 12 hours).  I don't really have any excuse for Saturday though, aside from sheer laziness.

Here are two pictures from the car barge to make up for it.


The Roanoke feels so much more like a touristy mode of transportation.  There's a big open deck with plenty of seating, a little snack stand where you can get drinks, and the very noticeable palm trees. 


There's also this great sign just outside of the bridge. I think the Roanoke could be my favorite car barge, even if they run half as often as the other guys.

  1. I've ridden a several car ferries before but they have NEVER had a palm tree in a flower pot on board!

  2. Yeah, what's with that palm tree flowerpot? It's... rad! Hee hee, it kinda makes the barge look better. It looks nice together with the cars on the boat.

    Perhaps it's something to break the monotony of too many cars?
