What a view! The Jeep followed several rows later. When parked, we left our vehicles and explored the ship. The interior was clean, and there was plenty of room for everyone on board. We headed to the top deck to watch the depar- ture and found we could look down on our motorhome. The water was mostly calm with a few waves in the middle of the crossing. Time went by quickly, and before we knew it we were in Port Townsend. Departure off the ferry was smooth and easy, and soon we were on our way. Wanting to stay and tour Port Townsend, we headed to a nearby campground and enjoyed the rest of our day stress-free.        e-mail, paid the fare and were sent to one of the pre- boarding lanes. Check-in was quick and easy. (They’ll ask you to turn off your propane and give you a tag for your tank.) Our motorhome was the first to board and was

Also, it is a lot of fun! To guarantee our desired date and time, we made reservations a week in advance. Since you pay according to the length of your vehicle, we disconnected the Jeep from our 40-foot motorhome, and my husband, Bob, and I drove separately. For the motorhome, Jeep and the two of us, the cost was approximately $70, a bargain when you think of the alternative. We arrived 30 minutes early, got in line and moved quickly up to the check-in booth. We handed over the reservation slip we had printed from the confirmation
