A hand pulled ferry services hikers who want to cross the Nahe at Bad Münster am Stein. It’s been in service since 1721. Water, Water Everywhere

Le bac près le Grau-du-Roi
For Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge I checked out ferry photos and I came across these from about 20 years ago. I know it was near Grau-du-Roi in the Camargue but I cannot pinpoint it further. Water, Water Everywhere
The Ferry Across the Neckar
has raised its prices. It used to be 70 cents per adult (with or without a bicycle), now it’s a full Euro. And for a car it’s 2 Euros now. You can reach Neckarhausen from Ladenburg via the bridge but it will add one-and-a-half kilometre to your journey. And it will take away about 10km of fun.

Where the Road Ends
the ferry has to take over. The instructions for cars on the ferry over the River Rhine at Nierstein: Switch off the motor! Lock the brakes! Switch off the lights! Driver to stay near the car! Ragtag Daily Prompt: End of the Line
Once There Was a Wonderful Playground
and then there motions, and applications, and petitions, and acclamations. And now the playground is only open according to a strict timetable and the water has been drained.
Ferry, Cross the Neckar
The barriers on both sides of the ferry are for the safety of the passengers. This hasn’t hindered a car from falling in a couple of years ago.

Fairies on the ferries
Sometime during summer our running group does a ferry run. It’s a different location each year, we find a ferry, and we plan a run which involves crossing a waterway.
It’s a lot of fun.
The way back may be another ferry ride or crossing a bridge. Most of us dress up as fairies (because it is fun). We’ve had runs which involved skinny dipping.
And it always ends in more fun.
Sadly – you might have guessed it – this year’s fairy / ferry run has been cancelled.
