  6. I don't like giving public spaces or facilities to private profit-makers. Shame really... Barangaroo Wharf is on a great part of the harbour.

    1. It's alright, Hels, because the new Brangaroo Wharf is a spectacular replacement for this one and it's not that far away.

  7. I like that a person is sitting there. Makes it feel like he is actually waiting for a ferry boat ride. Secret: I love a ferry boat ride. I have driven a rental car on a ferry taken it across a body of water then explore the other side and return for the ferry boat ride. Sometimes I see mishaps and wonder why I do this. Life is an adventure that is why I do it!

  9. I was thinking of you and your photos when a friend of mine posted about her trip to Oz recently. I have always (yes, always: all my life) loved a ferry ride. When I was small, we lived in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley, and the only way to get from one side of Okanagan Lake to the other was by ferry. Then a bridge was built (and the ribbon cut by one of the Royals...had to have been Princess Margaret) and years later, a new bridge. Marvels of modern engineering, perhaps, but my heart always remembers the ferry.
