On the Seastreak

If you have to commute Via car, bus or train, You know that your trip May be kind of a pain. But if you have a choice And you live near the sea, On the ferry is where Your commute ought to be. The Seastreak is roomy, Relaxing and fast And you can see lots of sights As you go past. The seats are quiet roomy; The wireless works. A snack bar and bathrooms Are some of the perks. My usual trips Are by subway or car, But ferry commuting Is better by far. Tomorrow I’m back To my normal routine, No longer a dolphin But more a sardine.

Ahhh . ., . How well I remember my days stuck on the New York City subways. First time I was ever groped by a woman in broad daylight. Heh.Heh

I've never been a passenger on this ferry service (I live too far south along the New Jersey shore), but I'll bet it will be a fun ride. It must be similar to the ferry that goes from Cape May, NJ, to Lewes, DE, and back across Delaware Bay. Nice write as usual, Ilene.

Well break out the crackers and have you a beer. And have you a snack and be of good cheer. The rat race is never too far out of sight. So cruise on the ferry as oft as you can to help win the fight. I walked the other day because it was so cold here in mn that my car wouldn't start. Peace. :)
